Is there pics of the individual Luxxtone guitars that aren't on the website? Latest greatest stuff that was at Amp? I saw a group shot but the phot was kind of grainy...incredible work!
 
I managed not to go into debt but one day one of those will be mine.

Hmmm...swimming pool route with a p90 mounted under there might be interesting.

It's as if a Fender and a Charvel had a kid, that was the idea Jim had. An old, bashed and abused Fender body and classic trem with a few tricks under the guard, with a more modern aged oil neck built for shredding. :thumbsup: Something I always wanted in a guitar too! The oil will break down and get dirty on the fretboard pretty quick also. Just a different spin and feel, not making a "clone" or trying to be era correct at all. Jim really had some killer ideas on this one!

The stealth single coil sounds very cool. Sparkly and clean, almost a country type twang to it. It's pretty cool to have that option to switch to if you want, even though it may not be a "classic" shredder single coil tone. Just more options to keep it fun. ;) We routed the first two layers of the pickguard material out just above the single coil, so there was less material on top of the pickup to help it out a bit.

This is cool. I'm "Stealing" this idea for a future build! Hope you had fun at the show. I never made it into any rooms, I was so pissed!
cheers!
 
That's a dangerous guitar Jim. Nicely done.

Anyone who knows anything about guitars will definitely be thrown for a loop when they see the toggle on a single pup strat. Very quirky, very original.

Can't stand strats personally (I mean to play), but since this one is a bit messed up looking, I've got a soft spot for it.

Congrats!!

The honeymoon is over. But the thrill is not gone.

This is one of the best playing guitars I've ever owned or touched. Possibly the best.
And the tones are great..wicked. I try not to buy into the mojo hype etc but there absolutely is something (or many things) about this guitar. I guess the word is "synergy": the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
 
Fuck! I love this guitar! I want to do a similar build with reverse headstock
