Luckily we'd got the new Tom Waits 'Bad as Me' to listen to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dom in Dorset Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 What's that lurking between the walnut P and the first Ray? 6th from the right, doesn't seem to be in your sig? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apa Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 (edited) Ha! So people actually read those sigs!! Frankly I have no idea what it is. I was given it in bits by a work mate who was in a band about erm 20 years ago. He'd recorded in Simon Guthries (Cocteau Twins) studio. Funny how a pop group could be made to sound like an 80's synth band but I digress. All I had was a defretted neck, 4 odd machineheads and a bridge. Made the rest myself and refretted it. Scratch made plate and a very cheap pickup. Then went to town with 3 or 4 rattle cans. Bearing in mind I dont think Id even picked up a guitar before. Saw a Precision and desided thats probably what it was. Its a short scale with standard strings cut to length. Hey I was young and nieve Its tucked under the bed now and 'doesnt count'. Its never had a string change in all those 20 years and actually makes quit a nice thuddy dead sound and considering all the above its quit a rich one too. Looking at it with more educated eyes it seems to have a bit of everything in it. Ray head, P body with a bit of J offset at the bottom and SG horns. And its got a zero fret with one long string retainer across all the strings. For some reason I have a feeling it may have been a Kay but if anyone recognises it it would be nice. Theres not alot to go on since the plate is my own design. Why wanna buy it? Its a one of a kind A Edited March 10, 2012 by apa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
