The return of the "Pizza Slice" guitar
« on: June 01, 2009, 07:30:36 AM »


Okay then, I made this one nine years ago from a piece of maple that was left over and too short and too narrow to make a real body from, part of the inspiration was KK Downing's custom Hamer cut off flying V's.

 
When I made it it had a Tele bridge and Pickup but it sounded really bad, very Ice Pick so I lend it to a music store's "Freak show" where it hung for over five years.

Last week however I decided to retrieve it because I had an idea on what to do with this "Pizzar". I pulled out the Tele bridge and pickup and replaced them with a Solid Brass bridge and a Duncan Classic Cover JB pickup. It now sounds so much better and it's a fun guitar to play while sitting on my lazy chair.
