Hello all,

As some of you may already know, I believe most don't know that I also build custom electric guitars "Jacobs Custom Guitars"
Anyway here is the latest creation from the shop that I thought I would share.

This one is a hardtail Strat style. Body and neck are licenced Fender Parts, body is swamp ash (rather light aswell 7.4lbs total weight) and a canary neck.
The cool thing about canary is that it doesn't need a finish, so the only thing finished is the head stock and heel. It is sporting a Macaser ebony fretboard a 10" - 16" compound radius neck w/ abalone possition dots. Finish is nitrocellous lacquer in a tobbaco burst. Plastic parts are in mint green. The pickups are are Lollar Dirty Blondes in the neck and middle and a Lollar Special Strat. in the bridge. Gotoh vintage tuners.

Bluesy want to give it a test run :lol:

Anyway heres a few pics.

Bluesey,

It may make an appearance in Orlando!

Funny... I had the very same thought! Great minds....

Wow! Can't wait to see it Tom. I'm not much of a solid body guy, but I could make an exception for this one. 8)

Pascal, we need a youtube clip with this one!

I've had a chance to play this one a bit. It is KILLER. In fact, all of the "Jacobs Custom Guitars" that I've played (including my own tele, if I may say so) are outstanding in both components and workmanship.

Dave :D
