Hi There! :)

 

What guitar are you modifying now? Anong modifications?

 

Just like you, I also am into modifcations on a stock guitar. Usually, pick up replacements, pick guard replacements, change Tuning heads, roller nuts for me on a Stratocaster are what I do.

 

Cheers! :cool:

 

precisely mr. 16track!, aside from the fact that they are really, really expensive, i'm not into the idea of being know as a guitarist who plays somebody else's signature guitar. perhaps it's pride... but i'd rather customize a stock model - which i am doing right now - and be remembered as the "not-so-good-guitarist" with his own cool guitar.

 

and indeed, playing a jem series won't make me play like Steve Vai.

 

kung filthy rich ka siguro, it's ok for collection purposes. i don't know kasi i'm not in that status ahihihihihihi

currently i'm working on my RJ Ibañez copy. hirap nga lang maghanap ng pickups for 7-string kasi i have to order them on the net pa. hinihintay ko pa perfect pitch kasi by january daw they'll be having some EVO 7.

 

as for the scheduled modifications, i'll have my guitar's neck and body shaved to make the higher frets more accesible, tapos refinishing na rin afterwards. i hope it will come out good.

 

IMO mas practical kasi gawing "lab rat" yung murang guitars as long as they are made of good wood. you'll never know, the quest for the holy grail of tones might end with the finished modified guitar :)

cynthia alexander is fine guitar player indeed and plays bass too...if you could still remember tha band HAYP. earning the right to win as best guitar player or guitar player of the year depends on the taste of the judges or in the modern era, voting (texting the votes if there is any). i guess we cannot define the criteria why she won. its like asking ano mas masarap na food? it all depends on your taste diba? pwedeng magaling sayo sa iba hindi. when i was a kid i always thought malmsteen could kick clapton, jeck, page or even hendrix's ass but then again i was wrong :) cheers!

Sounds good!

 

I agree that making the cheap guitars as lab rats are the better choice. Hindi masakit pag may mali. :D

 

Several famous guitars that started out as experiments were Eddie Van Halen's Frankenstein guitar and Nuno Bettencourt's axe. Nuno had his guitar's body and neck ( a Strat copy ) shaved as well. The body was cut down and reduced to a smaller size and the neck allowed access to the higher frets. Humbuckers were installed and so was a floyd rose original. The package was completed with a coil tap switch. The result was the N1 which Washburn then liscenced as the Bettencourt model.

 

Van Halen slapped together different body parts ( hence, it was called the Frankenstein guitar ), dropped a single Bridge humbucker, a single knob for volume ( no tone controls ) and took out the neck and middle pickups (the pickups are there but they are not wired). The package was completed with a Floyd and then given the famous striped paint ( it was yellow and black at first--before getting the more popular red/ white and black design).

 

Who would have known that this Frankenstein would revolutionize the guiar world when Eddie used the axe for Eruption?

 

Heheh! Rock on!
