Hello all,
I just finished building this guitar yesterday.
It has a solid pine body that I made from wood I'm told was a beam in an old barn once. The painted body weighs just under four pounds. The paint is black nitro.
The problem is that the guitar is actually very bright sounding, even unamplified. This body is so resonant even with paint on it that
if you knock on the body it almost sounds hollow.
If you were making Strat style pickups for a very light, resonant guitar owned by a classic rock musician, what would you make?
BTW - before you ask... no I'm not putting humbuckers in it.
