DESCRIPTION:
I made this guitar because ive always wanted an explorer, and i didnt want to settle for an epiphone, but i didnt want to way $1000 for a gibson either, so i made one. I wanted the guitar to sound like Billy Gibbons signature gretsch model, which is “heavily chambered,” so i did the same. Sorta too bad that you cant see the inside cus thats where most of my hard work went lol. I made the guitar out of alder. I hollowed out (or Heavily chambered as i like to say) the back and glued an alder top on. The back and top are both made up of 3-4 pieces of alder, as my woodshop stock room had alot of warped pieces, and my teacher advised me to cut the wood with the grain and glue the pieces together. I used my first guitar’s neck, a squier strat neck, and cut off that weird curve shape. I used a gretsch wraparound tailpiece i got off ebay and a used unidentifiable seymour duncan pickup i got at a pawn shop for $20. The one knob, a volume control, somehow got put in backwards so a counter clockwise turn will turn it up. I painted the guitar with many coats of primer, and then black spray paint, and then a silver coat on the top. The top bout of the guitar was angled that way to keep the strap from falling off because i was too cheap to invest in straplocks lol so i used my prs’s old stock rings. I bought new gotoh tuning machines and it stays in tune pretty well. My only complaint is that the action is a bit up the neck, and the pot is not tight so sometimes when i change volume, it loses signal. The total cost of the electronics, paint, etc., was about $130, but i didnt have to pay for the wood. I am thinking that when i replace strings, i will remove the neck and stick some thin wood in the cavity to lower the upper neck action and i will try to find a way to tighten the pot so that i can play the guitar more, because as of now, it hangs from my wall and will get no play lol. If anyone wants to buy it, ill sell it for $350-$400 because it has alot of sentimental value to it because it was my first attempt to build a guitar I dont expect anyone to really buy it though . Sorry for the long wait to reply! Ill try to reply to ur comments more from now on

Could’ve done better, but I got sick of playing the song! I screwed up the ending pretty bad, but whatever…
I’m pretty happy with my tone, though!
