The one on the left I made in 1989 the one on the right was made in 1999
with four more in between. All hand made, neck-thru, oil and wax
finish. They''re getting a little worn but I play them both in bands.
I would suggest you get Melvyn Hiscock's book - Make Your Own Electric
Guitar. Check out http://www.stewmac.com they have pretty much anything
you need. Do the inlay yourself - it's a lot easier than it looks (you
do need a Dremel router though). There's a great book on it at Stew
Mac. Building a guitar is about as rewarding an experience as you can
have - have fun.

Anyway, my point is, so much of what I do
musically is an attempt to
not conform totally to the mass-produced norm. For example, a couple
of years ago I needed a Strat-style guitar. The last thing I wanted
to do was buy a Strat because *everybody* has a Strat. So I bought a
customized G&L, which you might argue is the same thing, but really,
it's not.
heheh, I am currently taking this to one of its logical conclusions:
