New builds

[Jimothey]

I’ve started making a couple of guitars for the UKAGB Guitar build off which is a Facebook groups version of the Great Guitar Build Off 

Here’s the ‘Rotta T’ which is a an Offset Tele-ish shape it’s got a Poplar pallet top and it going to have Sapele back and neck with an Oak fretboard….

 

 

 

This is the ‘Daga’ which is a kind of ‘Rick crossed with a Corvette crossed with a Tele crossed with a Strat which is completely made from a pallet with 

a Sapele neck and Oak fretboard

The Rotta T is coming along nicely…..

 

I grain filled the headstock and fretboard black so I’m going to do the back and the rest of the neck after I’ve shaped it…..

Nice stuff. I like the 'barncaster' vibe. These two are my favourites. I've adored the Gretsch BillyBob since I first saw it, but never encountered a lefty that shape that I could afford. Particularly love this version with the Tele bits, though. One of these with the Tele bridge and a Filtertron in the neck would be fun. The Firebird style would be very cool with a p90 or an Esquier set-up. An inverted, CBS style Strat headstock would be a nice visual vibe on the FB body.
