She may be ugly but she's mine

[String Tree]

Made this axe out of stuff in my garage. The body is two sheets of plywood glued together. My future son in law cut them out. I did the routing. The neck and hardware are left over from a kit. The pick up is a Mighty Mite hot rails that kicks arse. It's comfortable to hold and play, and has a good tone. Maybe I will record something with just this guitar...coming soon

Who said she was Ugly?

I read ugly and thought maybe you hooked up with one of my exes. Here you go and show something that is pretty cool to look at. False advertising

I like it.
There's an abstract vibe going on, a bit like Airline guitars.
The Jean Reno of guitars: no oil painting but a look that's full of character.

Looks great, nice job.

Just curious, why only a neck pickup?

 

[StratDal]

Indeed she is! \m/

 

[StevesBoogie]

Total beauty and creative as heck! Love the idea of the sole neck pickup. How does she sound and play? I think I have an accordian case it would fit in, LOL

 

[peteycaster]

Puts me in mind of the Flintstones. Nice work.

I don't think its ugly. Pretty cool. The beveling brings to mind a coffee table i used to have.

It has received a lot of mixed reviews. I think she's attractive

My brother said the same thing about looking like an Airline

I wanted simple...the pup is an awesome neck pup. It's creamy, articulate and well balanced...I can run it through an eq pedal for lots of shape shifting

It is very comfortable to play. By design it sits in my lap perfectly, especially if the chair has arms on it. The pup sounds very good: creamy, articulate and well balanced..works great as a shape shifter via EQ pedal

lol...I think that is where I got the idea

I love it!

Great to have a guitar that is yours alone.

Lots of room to add more pickups if you want, also.

Cool! Reminds me of a Vox that ran into an Ibanez.

 

[Fenderdad1950]

OMG, I thought a person was talking about his wife ..... You guitar is very interesting and the final color looks great. Congrats on a fine build.

I was going to post a similar comment. Yabbadabbado!!

To me, it looks like a Great Rhythm Guitar.
Folks will no doubt like to sing along with it.
YEP!!!

That’s cool. Use it to write a country song with the same title as this thread.

I think the Maddox Bros beat him to it. Kinda. Sorta.
