Will put put up a thread tomorrow....saga indeed....
Trying not to be an over-achiever, but if all goes as well as it has the last couple of days, my first guitar may well be finished by this time next week.
That's a good thing, 'cos I need it ready in time for rehearsal on the 24th to test it before the gig on the 25th...

and I'm twiddling my thumbs, however there is a Mustang/Bronco Bass mashup in the planning stage - Roasted Ash body, with a natural finish and a recycled Squier Bronco Bass 30" scale neck, Gold Lace Sensor single coil, Mustang control plate......I also plan to modifiy a Squier hardtail Strat for the eldest grandson, away on the North Island next week so will find a suitable donor then....
Like @Philtre I'm going to build a pedal. I've had a mulitplex pcb in my build pile for almost a year now and I should really get to it. It's a digital based delay which approximates old tape delays like the echoplex and echorec. My current plan is to put the multiplex in a box with an EP3 based preamp, modulation and reverb for some spacey tape style delay fun.
Well...it is and it isn't "finished". Yes, I've learnt some basic electronics theory and practice and, yes, I have built a pedal...but...there's still two more months left in Q1 so I have extended my challenge to "Build three, or maybe four pedals, as I've caught the pedal building bug and can't stop!" :-)
With having only started it in Feb, didn't think there was a hope in hell of it being completed by end March but at the moment it's absolutely buzzing along. In for a penny...
A second entry for this quarter is my St Vinsent inspired build......
I need a stiff drink!......
