I'm glad you turned over the pup cover inserts. That blue pearl would have been gawd-offal with the peach burst.

Looking great! If you move what state will you be going to?

That's an amazing idea with the magnets.
I'll definitely have to try that one myself...

I was going to use the kind that you push on to get it to come up. But I got to thinking about the guitar resting up against the players body and with enough pressure I was afraid of it opening.
The other thing was I tried to use the magnetic tape but it was not strong enough.
So I bought the ones in the picture. They are super strong and was under 2 dollars for a pack of them.
I need to find some Velcro to hold the battery in, to help it from moving around in the cavity. I'll to that tomorrow sometime.

Excellant, throw in a battery and hook it up to the amp. Tap on the pickups with a screwdriver and you can test all of the controls and even hear the different overdrives.

Looks killer! I dig the magnet idea big time Eagle, great thinking and I might take your advice on the Titebond III stuff.
Can't wait to see her up and running. I am super jealous of this thing though man! I would also like to see a mini switch or a push/pull added someday...I'm all about tonality and options!

Yeah, we'll see how she sounds, like it is. I figure I can always change things around later on.
I really think though it will sound pretty awesome like it is.
It's hard for me, at the moment to put anything else on the body. For me I really, really, like the clean look. But if I think it needs more buttons I'll put them on.
I also want to get this up and playing just in case I need to move. If I have to make a move from FL to AZ, It will be some time before I get back up and running again. Plus I have 3 other guitars I am building I would like to get done, but this one is my top priority to get done.
I am glad to have such a good feed back on this build. I think it is coming together great!
I had the neck out side again today and it is curing pretty fast. So maybe by the week end I'll have the neck on. I'll see how it's doing by then.

Eddie -- Great job!  That color is really great, the knob layout is killer, and the decal/headstock combo is awesome! Thanks to all of the Attackers for contributing parts and to you for spending the time and effort on this great build. I will contact you for photos - I want to feature it on the GuitarAttack main site. Thanks again, John |

WOW! That guitar looks incredible, I would honestly say it is your finest piece yet. It looks great! I love the design is perfect and the details are all there. I especially dig the burst on the headstock and the person who did your decal did it perfect Eddie!
You have put together a perfect guitar man! I am so impressed right now! Absolutely fantastic job Eagle!

Great build Eddie! Its pretty cool how a bunch of mismatched parts can create something so special. I'm glad you like the overdrive. You get to position 4 or 5 and that thing really kicks in with some wild gain. Glad we could keep you busy.

This is for sure your best one Eddie!
And like John said: It's amazing how those mismatched parts can become a great looking guitar!
