The HarrySeven Signature Guitar

guitars4you

Building a mongrel might work out fine or look a dogs diner - I think some form of an odd ball but cool Italian guitar or 60's Jap guitar - Again cool - But somehow with modern hardware, even a Jazzmaster Trem, but Mastery - 9.5"  radius MJ frets - So a more playable version of this  - I'd go Gold Foil p/ups but keep those rocker switches, or those big flick switches you found on Mini Coopers in the 70's  - Has to have a H7 logo somewhere on it

I have this nagging feeling that the H7 signature guitar brief could be satisfied by a beaten-up mid-Eighties Charvel, with a headstock repair, a Seymour Duncan P-Rails pickup, one volume pot and P90/HB mode switching.

I don't think that there could be an H7 guitar unless it was modular.

Given that he seems to buy, on average, one a week a signature model would surely, in order to fully embrace the H7-ness required, have to be capable of having its bits swap-outable.

What like the tueffel bird/fish thing

But more soviet.

If I bought a Harry7 signature and it didn't have some kind of onboard synth with numerical keys I'd be disappointed

So, basically a Fidelity Stellarosa[1] then... :-)

[1] Which is an awesome guitar!

Guitar kit that comes with 3 like variants each as spares and repairs whereby the three combined don’t quite make a functioning guitar.

Collection only via a road trip 300 miles from your home address.

This is on my build list - a 'tribute' to a Teisco K series 'Shark'. Kahler knock off, built-in fuzz, silly flip paint job and Mojo foils that I can't afford.

Sounds like my ideal day out and many of my guitars...

Kahler Pro/Flyer or similar - always a winner...

ToneControl

should be wired up as a stylophone, plays the highest fretted note on all strings touched by the right hand

Random tip for anyone finding a stylophone in the loft - electrical contact cleaner to clean the "keyboard" can fix it!

A bolt neck, short scale single cutaway, with Jazzmaster trem, semi hollow, with a single diMarzio X2N , rocker switches for phase, coil tape and series parallel, brass hardware, and painted purple.

Sound about right?
