I'm thinking about ordering my paint for my project guitar from here: http://www.kmguitars.com/kmguitars2_page_8.htm They've got alot of choice. I know it says 'nitro alklyd' rather than 'nitro cellulose'. But I read somewhere that what we've been buying as 'nitro cellulose' is 'nitro alklyd' and is...

I've just ordered some clear cellulose from here http://www.choiceful.com/choiceful-id-75520-Simoniz-Clear-Lacquer-Cellulose-500ml.html Excellent value for money, but out of stock right now so I'll have to wait a bit. Worth it I think. Still undicided on the colour though? *EDIT* I waited about 2 mo...

How about the red or the black one, but with a mustang-shaped body?
Might work?

I'm not a fan.
At least they aren't warmed over strat rip offs?

I like some of the ideas if not the shapes.

If you changed the bodies and the necks, they might be ok?

Right then. I've Smoothed out all the cut edges apart from either side of the neck pocket which are about 10mm wide. I'm going to rear route for the electics. And paint it Burgundy Mist. I want some opinions on a couple of things: -PICKGUARD COLOUR; White, Black or White Pearloid -CONTOURS; Fore arm...

I cut the neck pocket and that nasty scar is gone! So no need for a funny shaped neck plate. And the neck fits really well! I've got a different neck now. An Eden neck with a tilted back headstock and rosewood fretboard. I've read horror stories about shitty Eden necks but mine is nice. It's slim an...

I've hardly touched this in ages.

Been waiting for parts and a few boring excuses. (I rushed and fucked it up a bit!)

Anyway got the bridge & machine heads and some other crap.
So now I've pretty much got all the stuff I need to put this together!

Update coming soon!

This website;

used to list jagstang in it's custom guitar bodies section.
They look a bit like allparts stuff.
