New Project Guitar Day. I returned the P90 loaner guitar to my new bestie, Bob Wallace, who built my Tele. When I was at his shop, I checked several guitars in various stages of completion. To my surprise, he told me to pick one I liked and take it home. "Some of those have been up there ten years. I need the space."
I narrowed it down to two and settled on the one with frets installed. I asked him how much he'd charge to finish the second one for me, since it was far past my limited abilities. The price he shot me is too embarrassingly low to print. It will live with me soon.
To finish the one I brought home, frets need dressed, body routed and wiring installed, nut carved and installed, and headstock drilled for tuner installation.
I think I'll go with black hardware, a tune o matic bridge, one humbucker, and a volume knob.
Bob loves to build unique instruments, and I love to play his creations. He's an excellent builder and a superb human.
Pics to follow if I can figure out how to upload from my phone.
