Gonna Start A Few Guitar Repairs & Mods

Gonna try fix my old teenage Strat and P-Bass first… Have some old Egmond Acoustics I would like to mod into fucked up slide machines with effects built in… Also have some tweaks on the collection to do and making up a 70’s Lawsuit Strat to build out of one Kent branded version and an Ibanez branded version I found in the basement in Some Neck Guitars… There is another plan to make a couple of Skateboard Lapsteel’s… And a couple of Skatboard Nightmare Machines which would have a load of weird metal impplimenta attached and electrified with pickups and contact mics and drugged up with onboard effects…
