i've never built a guitar before - this was just a random
idea i had and went ahead and did it.

errr. the music sounds WANk! and the 'sound' is average at
best. Am I missing something? Should I be saying 'well
done at your first attempt' or 'there are some great guitar
building tutorials at blah blah"

i wasn't trying hard with the music - i just played some
random shit so that my friends could hear it. i realize
that it is "wank".

don't worry about it...

the thing is, i don't really care that much about building
guitars or guitars in general - it was just about the fun of
a personal project and having realized the completion of it,
i got excited.

no reason to feel bad about saying that it's amateur-ish - i
know it already. it's fine.

i should have mentioned there is sound on this webpage, and
the sound isn't particularly pleasant. sorry about that
everyone.

People are too negative.

I am glad you are happy with the results of your work. I
couldn't listen to the sound, but regardless, the guitar is
something you created and I am sure you are proud of it.

Good work.

how would you feel if he actually had some serious disease,
which results in random objects being wedged in his back
passage?

I have tons of respect for people who make their own
instruments. It looks nice. What kind of weird ass
distortion were you running through in that sample?

thanks so much everyone for looking and the kind words!

aphextwin11 - now an amplifier from scratch blows my mind,
i'd love to see pics if you've got 'em.

smyrma - that's the cool thing about this guitar - that was
just a rat pedal, a very common distortion effect. but with
this guitar it sounds much richer than normal. i'm getting
lots of low end sounds out of it - probably the pickups. it
was a nice surprise to me.

Nice. Two humbucker pickups shit all over the traditional
fender ones. If it doesn't fall to bits within two weeks, it
should sound pretty good.
