Thinking about an Esquire Custom...

Anyone build bodies and necks and finish with nitro?

[cmatthes]

Agreed there - his stuff seems to be top notch.

This could be an Esquire easy.

Everybody needs an Esquire.

Everybody needs an Esquire.

Indeed.

[bubbagomez]

Dang. I'm so out of the loop. I need an esquire.

Here's my Jackson tele-shaped Soloist 2003 Fender Esquire GT.

That's a joke but not too far off the mark - this sucker KILLS in playability and tone. Best hard rock guitar I've had in years.

Jeffro-what's the LP there?

[data187]

i agree with the gts being awesome.

i had a one with a cheesy scorpion inlay.

it was ugly to look at but played/sounded great.

Don't get too excited there, Sport.

Hey, the Aria has a '59/JB combo in it now (Cajun Boy felt sorry for it), so its one major weakness is fixed - and quite well.

Was curious WHICH lawsuit company it was-looked Greco-ish to me. I've been looking at a lot of the late 70s/early 80s Rising Sun stuff lately...

For a body check out Guitar Mill. They make really good bodies. Their paint is nice as well. http://guitarmill.com/

Here is my Esquire Custom (or is it crazy!) Anyway, it is a pine body. This one gets amazing tone. I play it a lot. I wish now I would have gone a little less custom. Everyone should enjoy an Esquire at least once in their life.

mammoth guitars will build you whatever, at least thats what I am told... one cool option is that they have done raised center blocks like a firebird would have , and thats a classy touch , especially to an esquire!!!

That sounds cool - do they have a website? I couldn't find it for some reason.

Took these in Cambridge, MA on Rich Robinson's solo tour:

I've always enjoyed listening to george lynch. He is partially responsible for my esquire desire.

[hamerican gigolo]

Esquires are a lot like LP Jr's. A lot more versitile than people give them credit for.

[bubbagomez]

Sometimes I think of them as a forerunner of the 80s van halen shred guitar, of sorts. One pickup is all you need to get it done.

Before...

After...
