after reading an ebook named " how to paint your guitar " i decided to make 1 heavy metal strat , with a super tight budget . i wan this guitar in bright and facy colour , like highlight green or yellow , painted headstock , 2 humbuckers and a single coil in the middle , black pickguard . the problem i face now since im in tight budget :
lack of
1. another humbucker
2. two humbucker pickup rings
3. H-S-H pickguard < means humb , single and humb
4. black hardwares
what should i do ?
1. buy another humbucker ? cheap or good ? for the cheap 1 rm50 it sure sound like shit , for the good 1 i have 2 pickups in mind , r-supersonic heavy metal ( should be rm150 ) and seymour duncan invader (rm295 )
2. buy it ? last time saw at bentley , they selling it for rm15 , means i have to spare rm30 for it , damn it just a piece of plastic , i just imagine to customize 1 by my zone5 and greenbox member card but found out that they are too thin ...
3. cut my original 1 or buy a new 1 ? if i cut means i have to replace another when i wan it to be original condition , it cost like rm 50 1 piece , but H-s-H pickguard for strat like very hard to find ... and im worring that i will fucked up the job as im planing to cut them with hot knife ( the only way i can do )
4. damn chrome is so fucking gay ... i wish all my hardwares are in black colour , hardware will cost rm200 above for machine heads and bridge , if i spray black coat to them sure it will become like ed-dwin guitar , the paint will chips and it looks terrible .
this guitar already cost me a sukami classical guitar (trade with thomad ) , rm180 ( top up to thomad ) , a skateshoe ( to thomad ) , rm65 ( rewiring and a dimarzio tone pot ) , rm 9 ( sandpapers ) , rm 11.50 ( primer + lacquer ) , rm9 ( wood filler ) and i haven buy the paint and 3M swirl removal yet ... damn painting own guitar like costing me a bomb too... hope to post up my guitar picture in 3 months period ( lacquer need 2 months to completely dry for wetsanding )
