swamp witch SPECTRUM5.OH teisco tribute

VIDEO HERE http://www.cigarboxnation.com/video/swamp-witch-spectrum-50h-guitar-teisco-tribute-testSWAMP WITCH SPECTRUM 5 POINT OH (5.0) A TEISCO SPECTRUM 5 TRIBUTE .(JUST SHOWING YALL THE SWITCH TONES HERE )As some of you already know , I went a different direction than using the regular swamp witch elder body for this spectrum tribute . The elder body Had to be changed too far from the sw look to accommodate the deeper pups etc ..So I used an old carved body I got off Low Budget Luthier a while ago on a trade , and put it to use . and added the red painted accents .As you can see , THIS BODY was perfect for this guitar .I used the guts , parts , and neck off a swamp witch Familiar 6 string model and converted it to 3The custom mirror “Spectrum5.0” name badge is from a guy that makes wedding cake toppers ;-)The 6 3 square pole pups ,, used to be impossible to get .. but a new supplier is re-poping them now .The punched out star pennies I got on ebay . they have crosses , angels etc .. too.This thing is awesome .. I just love it and all the tone choices it supplies .Obviously this one will be one of a kind .. and I will probably keep it .Will I sell these, or something similar ?If anything .. I may start selling a similar guitar without the carved body . depending on interest ,, (let me know if interested ) but it will cost about $ 400 + .We shall see . anyway hope ya like this one .
