First Build

This is my first build. Made it with my Dad. Plays like an angel and growls through my 15watt Fender. I've been playing it through an old Jen Dynamic Sustainer pedal and it screams Garage. It can hold its own without the pedal though. These guitars are the best thing I've come across. My two other guitars look on in envy.

  • Damned right, wish the black box had turned out even half as well.

    I wanted to build a proper screamer too, didn't quite work out like that.
  • I think he means screams "Garage Rock".

    Being "over the hill" in life and fairly socially isolated, keeping up with all the new slang expressions of younger the generations is rather tough. What does "screams Garage" mean? To me it sounds rather negative as though you are saying it "really sounds poorly made" (as though someone built it in their garage rather than being professionally made), but somehow I don't think that that is what you mean to say.

    Nice first-time build!

  • That's good looking!
  • Nice work, now quit monkeying around and get playing. ha, sorry just had to reference the monkey.
  • Thanks Arnold, It really inspired me to get into building. I'm trying to learn how to build an amp now. These things are awesome!!
