sir 1 piece ba yung body? ikaw ba nagprovide ng wood?

ARCEE provided the wood. it has tone chambers on both sides and the top was re-attached. but basically it all came from one piece of wood. :-D

haha on the first fret bro, but give elstupido a break, this is his first project alone (with some guidance from his dad). he usually does the electronics and his dad does the wood/guitar work, this time he did it alone.  :-D

plus, he did a neck with a skunk stripe on his first try, AFAIK, it's not the easiest type of neck to start out with. :lol:

Haha... I was hoping that no one would notice that.. Pero I admit tumabingi talaga ako sa inlays. Excited na kasi ako matapos nun yung guitar kaya basta basta na lng ako nag-cut ng wood for inlays... tsaka testing ko lng yan kung ok na inlay ang maple. don't worry though, making mistakes means I'm learning.

Nice! :-D
hi everyone. i'd like to share pictures of my ARCEE custom guitar.





the neck is actually from a barclay wolfgang copy that i purchased from one of the sellers here in philmusic. It used to have a lifeless plywood body but was advertised as solid mahogany ( i found out when i checked the guitar cavity when i got home and unfortunately the seller won't give my money back....go figure :roll:)

Newly rewound Alnico P90's
Salvaged OFR
Tone Chambered Northern Ash Body
Jumbo Frets



thanks to ARCEE for making this guitar blunder into a roaring beast!

lol, i knew you were excited, i can tell by the inlays you wanted to get it done and play it

guys, galing ako kanila sir Ruel kanina lang. I checked on my custom guitar and settled some of the balance. :lol:

anyway, I was able to try their tele-strat hybrid which was mostly done by Raph. Stupid me forgot to take photos. The guitar was very, very, and I MEAN VERY IMPRESSIVE, specially the pickups Raph made himself (seriously, made-not just re-wound or something). Those single coils he made easily puts the Texas Specials to shame, seriously. I've tried it on my friend's strat, walang binatbat dun sa gawa ni Raph. It was his first project btw, and it wasn't bad at all. In fact, it's a lot better than your everyday squier or even an MIM fender.

The guitar sports an ash tele body with a strat bridge and pickguard assembly, a maple neck with a rosewood fretboard with a telecaster headstock. 60's C-shape neck and block "wood" inlays. Sayang talaga nakalimutan ko kuhanan ng litrato. I hope the father and son tandem will be kind enough to post that guitar here. I was even joking them if they would sell it, ayaw hehe. :lol:

I got a lot more excited on my custom, sana matapos na ASAP. Btw, I saw paengkee's "jazzmaster" and it's almost done. @paengkee, dude, the grains on your guitar is to die for, promise, specially on the backside. 8-)

i already used it nung tour. though i had some tweaks done to it before i get it for good :D

hi, tanong ko lang, other than custom guitars, what other services do you offer?

do you do the ff?
1. truss rod adjustments
2. intonation
3. other adjustments (action, etc...)
4. re-finish, repaint, etc...
5. custom pickguard

please PM me your pricelist if you do those things listed above.

thanks :)

PS: para sa bass guitar pala ha...

sir, nagi-install po ba kayo ng truss rod? wala kasing truss rod yung locally made kong gitara. gusto ko sanang palagayan. possible ba yun?  if yes, how much? may sentimental value kasi askin yung gitarang yun plus sha na rin yung project guitar ko. taga Calamba lang po ako sir.

@ninen Yes we do those thing... We also do re-frets, bone nut replacements, repair cracked body and neck depending on how worse the crack is, pickup rewinding, rewiring etc...
_____________________________________________________________________ _____________________

@rakenrol Bro, I suggest palitan mo na yung neck. it would be one hell of a job kasi kung magiinstall tau ng truss rod sa neck mo. Some local guitars kasi have steel rod inside the neck pero hindi adjustable like some guitars made in cebu. So hindi tau sure kung pwede lagyan ng truss rod neck mo.
