Re: [SurfGuitar101] Re: What if we built our own Ultimate Fender Surf Guitar? (Pickups)

dave wronski (stickmandw) - 19 Jan 2005 19:51:25

Look now at the Slacktone photo file to see my
unfinished Slackocaster, I just uploaded it. Dennis
has a new version for NAMM. It's solid laminate
instead of just the top. It has a non laminate
pickguard, it's solid pearl, three Strat pickups, and
a Strat bridge.
If you want a surf guitar custom made, I can reccomend
Dennis, and Chris Flemming, two Master Builders that
do great work. Chris has made some Jags with big
blocks and binding that are just fantastic.
That's real cool Europe went well for you, lot's of
nice people there!
