Burger king or McDonalds, starbucks or dunkin dounuts, Bud or coors light, hell, Ginger or Maryann. It all comes down to personal preference. Larry Carlton can plug into a pignose and still sound like Larry Carlton.

customize guitar




Schecter C-1 FR















I am in a process to get my own signature guitar , customize by a luthier who should be anonymous for now. We see a lot of artist's signature guitar among others that i like such as
John5 telecaster,Jim Root tele, Kirk Hammett's ESP and EVH among others.
But the 1 guitar i really thing suits me, and the 1 i am modelling after is the soul power guitar, mr tom morello's guitar.
Except that i substitute the pick ups with 2 humbuckers,maple neck and i want a thin white finish.

The specs are as below:
Mahagony Body Strat style ( thin white finish)
Maple neck and fretboard ( No finish, bare neck, neck V profile)
Medium frets (maybe stainless steel)
Grover tuning machine
Floyd rose
Seymour Duncan pickups
2 Volime knobs, 1 tone control for the neck pick up only
3 way toggle switch ( for the on-off stuttering sound)


I'll post more about this later.

Great Acts
