Put strings and hardware on this thing since I’m not going to spray final clear this year because I put it off too long again. Oh god does it need fretwork, but it sounds killer and the death bucker is awesome. It looks very homemade but it’s probably never leaving home, so, y’know. Tuned to A

A blue baritone with a cocobolo neck and open square inlay. It has one black pickup, black sperzel tuners, a big chrome topped knob and a dramatic single cutaway and binding

A close view of the carve on the body and the binding.

ESP THE ALFEE Signature Angel Classic Junior

I've posted a few guitars that ESP made for The Alfee's guitarist Toshihiko Takamizawa (Takamiy), and here's another one. This one is the most normal of the bunch, which is saying something.

The ESP THE ALFEE Signature Angel Classic Junior has a shape that's inspired by a Les Paul, but has went through some rather creative surgery. It's got an asymmetrical waistline, and the cutaway horn has been moved all the way back to where your leg would rest if you played this sitting down. The body also has The Alfee inlaid on it, as well as one of Takamiy's other angel-inspired guitars, making this the only instance I can think of where a guitar's inlaid onto a totally different one.

This guitar's got two humbuckers, and they're controlled by a volume knob and a 3-way switch. It's also got a Floyd Rose trem. The neck has angel inlays and is topped by a curly 4/2 headstock. (Ignore the black things on either side of the headstock; those are from a guitar stand.)

BC RIch Warlock Body Art Collection "The Fly"

The BC Rich Warlock is a very angular metal guitar with a double cutaway body that's got a big V cut out of the end, leaving two asymmetrical points. It's got a humbucker in the bridge that's controlled by a volume knob, a 24-fret neck, and a 3/3 headstock that's just as pointy as the rest of the body.

Speaking of the body, this guitar is part of the Body Art collection, and has a fairly realistic top-down picture of a fly that takes up the whole body.

its been a minute since i said this so i gotta remind yall: strat shape guitars are boring and overplayed, please make ANY other shape, the body shape does not affect the sound of an electric guitar so you can literally do anything i cant believe we're stuck on a design from the fucking 50s

Fender Rhinestone Stratocaster prototype

In 1975, Ivor Arbiter (the UK's Fender distributor at the time) asked sculptor Jon Douglas to make "a non-boring Strat". Now, if you look at just the hardware specs, this is basically the same as any other Strat that came out of the factory in 1975 (three single coils, one volume and two tone controls, 5-way blade switch, maple neck with rosewood fretboard and big 70s headstock). The body is a whole different story, though.

The body of this Strat is made out of a fiberglass core that's been covered in cold cast bronze. Feathery curls stand out from the body, with the longest one running from the bridge all the way down the top horn. The guitar has also been studded with white rhinestones, giving it its name.

Six guitars were made in this original run, but only two survived a fire at the Fender store where they were located. Another 50 were scheduled to be made in the 1980s, but Douglas died halfway through the run.
