Finished one today...

[CKJ]

Freakin awesome looking!! I really wasn't a fan of the Firebirds until I joined this forum. That's an awesome burst!

[Scooter]

Now that is just.....WOW.
I don't have the words. Makes me want one.
Sully, you are a talented dude.

Thanks all! Here's another one from yesterday; The original purple dye job faded over the years, so I redyed it.

Holy freakin' crap... That is AWESOME!

What did you use for clear?

[Hellbat]

I thought you never finished guitars, just started them?

[Johnnyryche]

Great job on both of those, Sully! Love the color on the purple quilt.

Thanks man! I used Urethane clear shot from paint guns.

I was laughing to myself yesterday because I assembled AND wired two guitars yesterday! Trying to be less of a 90%er.

Great job on both of those, Sully! Love the color on the purple quilt.

Thanks John! It's a weird color in that in different lights, it's either purple (like in the pic) or very, very blue.

Both of those finishes are awesome... That has to be the best 'burst I've seen in ages, and the purple/blue thing is KILLER...

[VitaminG]

Well, mostly. I still need to dial in the nut slots and install strap buttons, but here's the bird body I built around an 87 Jackson neck. I'll eventually swap the pickup out for a regular spaced zebra, but I used what I had (trem spaced Duncan Alternative-8, which kicks ass).



Sully

yowza! that is sweet. Got clips so we can hear that Alt-8?

[Learn Guitars]

Uber schmexy bird!!! That is beautiful. Did you bind the body or tape the edge off? Hard to tell, regardless, bitchin work there Sully.

[sully]

Thanks Mike! It's bound.

Thanks Jim! I'd happily build one for you.
