Recently I put together a partscaster. Not that I underestimated it but it was quite hard. Thank you all my friends for keeping asking me when I was going to finish the guitar. Otherwise I might have given it up.
I thought I'd do a quick demo. I admire Roy Buchanan/Albert Collins and Jeff Beck at the same time so it is a telecaster with a whammy bar. My playing is quite rough but hopefully the video shows how the guitar sounds. Not the best sounding guitar but I'm happy that the guitar actually produces any sort of sound!!
Body: 2pc swamp ash from Guitarbuild.co.uk
Aniline dye and (sort of) French polish finish.
Neck: Second-hand 2pc maple from ebay. Took the gloss finish off and refinished it with tru--oil and wax.
Pickups: Artec vintage alnico set.
Wired 4-way and the position closest to the neck gives you neck and bridge PU in series.
Bridge: Stetsbar
Amp is Vox AC15. Also used Boss CS2 and Digitech Bad Monkey.
Sorry I can't remember where I got the backing track from. Something to do with David Gilmour I think
