David Gilmour Strat Conversion

Coversion from a regular Fender Strat to a replica of David Gilmours Black Strat. The sound from the pickup combo and switching is amazing - pure Gilmour tone as well as Hendrix / Stevie Ray.

Converted to the same specs as David Gilmours Black Strat. Reliced as per the original guitar - including the filled trem route, Callaham Vintage S bridge with 4" trem arm, Fender Custom Fat 50's in the neck, Fender Custom '69 in the middle, and a Seymour Duncan SSL-5 in the bridge - custom wiring as per Dave Gilmour (note the 2 way micro switch to give neck and bridge combo in position 1) 1 ply pickguard and vintage white covers and knobs. I made use of the excellent book 'The Black Strat' written by Phil Taylor - Dave Gilmours guitar tech.

These are pics of David Gilmours actual Black Strat:

Mention on Motorheads new Album

Many thanks to Motorhead and Tim Butcher for getting a mention on the new Motorhead album:

Headless Guitar with raised flames for Mikkey Dee of Motorhead

Just finished this guitar for Motorheads Drummer - Perfect job again by Ace at "Ace of Sprays" (http://aceofsprays.co.uk/) - he did raised flames in fiberglass, then a really nice candy apple flame in yellow to red.

EVH Style Strat.

Just finished this build - nice guitar.

New Bass

Now taking orders on this Bass - can you guess who its for?

Wall of Lemmy Guitars

Just finishing of a batch of Lemmy Guitars - also check out the Bass.

We are still taking orders for the guitar - check out this link for more information: Lemmy Guitar

Building an Uli Jon Roth Sky Guitar with 36 frets

Been wanting to do one of these for a while now - its an Uli Jon Roth Sky style Guitar.
36 frets on a Maple cap neck, 6 strings for now - will do a 7 or 8 string version when I am happy with the build. I am not scalloping the fretboard as I am not a fan of that style - the electronics will be an issue as these is a humbucker placed under the fretboard on the upper register (I am thinking of 3 Bare Knuckle Warpigs to much derision by my colleagues!). I am also going to include a Strat style bridge with piezo's in the saddles. Sails of Charon anyone...
