This guy did a really awesome job converting a line 6 variax shit box into a strat version.
pretty cool work, thought i'd share. his attention to detail is pretty nice, and his guitar rotisserie is a pretty sweet idea. also, the headstock was pretty bangup.
but wtf? painting in his studio?!
*** i am not a fan of the start product, quilt tops, paint/stain, etc., but dude did a killer job, and i was quite impressed. ***
start:
end:
(that's not the real end product, i didn't want to ruin it.)

Impressive skills.
Still an awful lot of work to turn a stupid guitar into a stupid guitar.

Why do people think they need to own monstrosities like this? If you need 30+ different guitar sounds at your fingertips then you are automatically playing masturbatory noise that only you can enjoy. Do everyone a favor and buy a real fucking guitar that isn't a robot and just rock the fuck out like you are supposed to.
WTF with the black border too....I just don't get it

Quite. LOL at the 'burst'.
Nice of him to name his guitar after Rosemary West though.

Yeah, not into it, but he did good work.
Accidental racism lols also. When I saw the first pic of his hand I was like, "Wtf is up with his big brown dirty hand?" Then I saw in the later pic's that he's a black dude and that's why he has brown hands...

The burst could have been more subtle. And maybe he could have painted the back too.
But the one thing that got me was this picture:
3 knobs and some bling. Oh word.
