Strat build

I finally got my "Stone Soup" strat finished. I started out building a kit from Stewmac. I kept replacing parts one at a time until I ended up with a guitar that has none of the original kit parts lol!

I also built a new rack mounted computer to go with my new UA Apollo X6 interface.

I fully modded that pedal years ago. It sounds nothing like the original.

I bought one back in 1999. I sold one three weeks later.

I was being a doucher. That pedal and the MT-2 have pretty much become Gear memes and i was running with it. You set it up and I just hit it home lol!!

All that aside your did a bang up job of that strat! It looks fantastic. Did you happen to document it's evolution at all? Picture of various stages and what not. I'd love to see that stuff. What did you use to get the final finish? What made you get to this finished product?

I was 19. I only cared about rocking out playing live, beer, skateboarding and chasing tail. I didn't really give a shit about guts of anything back then.

Sell and get something else.

Yeh, I've been there..

Frustratingly lots of the gear I moved on is now worth more than me...

That's a nice finish. Did you paint it too?

After several failed attempts at finishing the original body, I gave up and bought an already finished Fender American Professional II body.

Would look better in gold sparkle...

But congrats! Must be very fulfilling to build your own stuff.

Nice, I just don't have the time or patience to get something like that done.

I owner a DS1 for quite a while. They're OK and not as bad as people say.

[CrowsofFritz]

I love the Boss DS1 lol
