retrosurfer1959 Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Ive built several - why did you have a question? Here's a Tele I started a few months back but then decided to do a three way move of homes and buy a cabin up north in Payson Arizona so I haven't worked on it in a while. I finished the neck so all that's left is to finish it and put it together. Here's a acoustic I built with a high grade Cocobolo back and a red Spruce/Adirondack top And here another acoustic with a 5A Koa back (master grade) and again a Adirondack top And here's one just getting started Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bender 4 Life Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 <<< lovin' Dem00ns' Strat!!.....and OMG Retro, those acoustics are amazing, i'm jealous! i built both of these and the amp behind them...... and i'm currently doing the "spray, sand, repeat" loop on the body for a "Muddy Waters" type Strat (yes, I know he played a Tele) that's "Official Alabama Crimson Tide" red, plain white PG, old Fender amp knobs, black p'up covers, with a rosewood FB. it should be finished sometime next month.

Searcy Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 The first guitar I ever built was this one for my god daughter Brandi. Then I built this variation on the idea. Then a bass. Another electric. An acoustic for my dad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hecube Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Of course! I built myself a lapsteel: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky4 Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 The Tele is a Warmoth body and various parts from eBay and Stew-Mac The cbg with the Tele pickup was an experiment that never worked out like I planned The yellow cbg was my first cigar box. It cost me less than $25 and is a blast to play, everyone should have one. ...but after seeing Retro's post, I want to crawl under a table.....

rocketman Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Very cool guitars here! I don't have the skills to build one myself, but I've taken apart my Sonex enough times to feel that I could at least try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
