  • I'm converting an affordable HSS Strat style guitar into the Deluze Orphean, Johnny Silverhand's iconic guitar from Cyberpunk 2077.

    - Humbucker covers: www.amazon.de/gp/product/B08Y...
    - stainless steel selector switch: made on the lathe - if YOU know a source, please tell me in the comments! It's a pain in the butt for me to machine.

      I can honestly relate. The music from Cyberpunk 2077 actually inspired me to play music again after 13 years. Bought a new guitar and amp. I've been playing steady for 2 months now. I've actually learned Never Fade Away from the game And I'm currently practicing Like A Supreme.
      All this with the hopes that I can play better than I used to so I can play Kerry's Song.

      The angled part is merely a string guide, the bridge is hidden under the hand guard. I agree, a trem would be cool though!

      If you haven't already decided to do this, probably make your own string guide with rolling pins. Some of (in my personal opinion) the best bridges and string guides have roller pins for angles far less intense than this and it ends up being really good for the bridge/guide and strings.

    ok so ive been thinking about the logistics of this build because i wanna do something similar and i kept getting stuck on the pickups. i couldn't figure out where the hell you got square covers for strat pickups..... an then i spottet the filtertron covers and p90 covers and i had to watch through the whole video again, and i realized what you did. your a fucking mad man, and i love it

    • @simonmakes
      @simonmakes  Рік тому +32

      Haha, Thanks! Just realized that the P90 covers are still on the table at the end of the build - their size is not even close.
      Maybe some explanatory words for the back of the class:
      What sofie brandt figured out is that I machined and cut those filtertron humbucker covers to size in order to make them fit the single coil pickups. What makes this even sketchier is the fact that I did not know what material they were made of when I ordered them. The descriptions all say "nickel" - but nickel what? Cardboard? Pig iron? Luckily it turned out to be brass so I could solder them back together instead of having to rely on super glue alone.
