A rebuild of one of the first guitars I made for myself, although it's a bit more like a completely new guitar eventually as the over time both body and neck have been changed.
This is a bit like the ancient Greek story of The Ship of Theseus where a ship is constantly rebuilt and at what point can it be considered no longer the same ship. Modern versions of the story are often called Grandfather's axe (or Trigger's broom for Only Fools and Horses fans)
A mahogany body, 3 piece maple neck and ebony board - inlaid with a spiky boot motif that I adopted many years ago.
The fretboard is scallopped from the 14th fret upwards - not unlike a few of the Panther model guitars I have made for myself over the years, influenced by George Lynch on his skull and bones
Loaded with a bare Knuckle Pickups Miracle Man in the bridge and a Sustainiac pickup system in the neck for endless controlled feedback.
An original Floyd Rose (had this one since 1988) equipped with a big steel block rounds out the major hardware.
Many guitars have a re-sale value. Some you'll never want to sell.
