I made the best partscaster I've been using for 6 months (and changing it up) and it has been the best guitar I've owned. It has not been the cheapest, however, it plays the way I want and sounds the way I want.
1. I started with an Alder body HSH cut for Floyd Rose from guitar fetish. Neon Yellow. Color was not the focal point, I can paint it whatever I want to later, but it doesn't matter to me. $95.00 shipped with a coupon code.
2. Neck from China. $74.00 shipped. Solid maple unfinished.
3. Seymore Duncan 78's. Eddie Van Halen-esque sound. I used .047uf 400v capacitor on the tone and a treble bleed. $220 set
4. D'Addario locking tuners 6 in line black. Don't need em with the double locking system, but I wanted the black color. I've changed these around, and always stick with them. $65.00
5. Floyd Rose system from a Squier Contemporary (I replaced it on the Squeir with a EVH that I salvaged) that works much better than the EVH system. I'm not paying $200-300 for a real Floyd when I do not need it.
6. EVH Fender 500k pots. $24
7. 5 way switch from Musiclily or Kaish....I forgot which and it doesn't matter really. $12.00
8. Fleor single coil middle pickup that just does nothing really. One day soon, I'll redo it again with a HH pickguard and re-wire it. $20.00
All of this ticks my boxes and costs way less than a Players Stratocaster....I play it every day so far for the past 6 months, just started laying down tracks for some new songs with it. I recommend more people staying away from giving these greedy companies money for overrated guitars. Gibson and Fender both make garbage these days.
Yes I agree that’s why I wanted to make this video after I have spent some time with my instrument. I bet you learned a lot about how everything works too and like you said it is tailored for your playing style and hands. And That is wonderful. thanks for posting. hopefully more people will be courious to build their own guitars too. 🎸
Phenomenal playing my dude!
Edit: That tone is awesome! It is a custom shop! You customized it in your shop!
Thank you 🙏
You really did a great job. I was born in the 60s I'm going into the 70s I was able to see my fair share of guitars. The way you did that really looks like it could have been from the 60s.
At some point you might want to build another one and video it. Those videos receive a lot of views. Looking forward to your next video.
Thank you and yes i really should build another maybe a strat 🎸
Beautiful in every way! I need (not really) a Tele. I have never owned one.
Im sure you would enjoy a tele, there the jeeps of guitar lol 🎸
Took 5 years to build a telecaster, nice hobby but hardly efficient, for less than you have in it you could have bought a great guitar.
It didn’t take me 5 years to build this I build it in a month I have been using it everyday for 5 years and it’s as good as anything you can buy even better it’s in the video lmao have a good one
