What's Hot
I've recently put this together, but in all honesty I've got nowhere to put it!! So first in, first out...
Its a Ragh semi-acoustic body that I bought from our very own
@DrBob ;;;;. Its a bit thicker than a regular T-type so I've recessed the neck bolts into the joint so they go further into the heel than before. This needs tidying up and finishing off. I also got jiggy with the router and made a hole for a neck humbucker. Again, not the best but its mostly covered by the neck pickup ring.
Its got a Warman 50s style maple neck. This is a big mofo and really nicely finished. The nut hasn't been cut down yet, as I've been playing slide on it but its bone and could come down a touch.
Neck pickup is a very excellent Vanson 57 PAF and the bridge is a very nice Luker broadcaster type. Combined with the swanky Schroeder bridge this rings like a bell. The volume pot is a dual value job (Fender/CTS) so the pot values are correct for both the humbucker and the single, and it has a push pull pot for the tone to split the bucker.
Its cost me a few squid-oolies to put together and all I'm asking is for most of it back... so £245 delivered buys it.
I've just tried uploading pics to IMGUR but the computer says "no" (*coughs*). I'll try to add some later. But as an experiment, I thought I'd stick a video up of what it sounds like. Its a bit rough and ready (like me really) but you should get the idea...

Comments
I meant to say, its a lovely thing - and it plays nicely. I'm sure it could be finessed a little more. Open to trades for pedals (they take up less space)... I like delays, odd stuff, you name it really... Or you're welcome to come and give it a whirl and collect from near Kettering, Northants should you wish.
Any questions please ask. :-)
