yee it's one of my babies. Here's another one. Shoddily modified Schecter Omen-8. It's got a bareknuckle in the bridge slot but the space wasn't big enough so I did the "routing" work with a hammer an screwdriver, and wired it straight to the output jack. Pulled the pickup selector switch out and pulled the wires from the other pickup out through it. Eventually I'm going to attach a home-made midi controller to those wires.

And here's a couple more. A gun shaped guitar I found gutted at my local used gear store, bought it for forty bones and wired it up, and then pulled out all the frets above 12 so it's half fretless. And a double-neck I made from 2 other guitars. It's named Aborto.

but can any of you actually play them? Or is this literally just a guitar rate thread?

Yes, stock pickups in there. And I wasn't going for the Buckethead look intentionally, it just happens to be just like his les paul minus the kill switches. I've never been much of a les paul fan

Cheap guitars are sometimes horrible to play and cheap amps don't always sound nice, so non-obtrusive equipment inspires to play more. And some players don't like performing, so they don't record anything. After all, hobbies are meant to be enjoyable to oneself, so whether they are entertaining to others doesn't matter. And as long as anyone can enjoy their hobby, there's no need to prove anyone that one is entitled to play guitar for example.

Yup but will keep your sound

>>689228622
Pretty sure some of petrucci's old signature ibbys came with a piezo.
>>
>>689229124
Look for the one with low string action but no fret buzz, straight neck and truss rod are important, no sticking out frets
>>
>>689229124
Ibanez makes some Really great inexpensive guitars for beginners/intermediate players.
>>
>>689229124
Biggest protip ever:
Buy second hand, for the prize of 300 you can for example already get an Ibanez Premium.
>>
>>689229124
Look for one with a fixed bridge. You won't need a tremolo for a while and some of the cheaper ones don't hold tune.
>>
>>689229545
>>689229124
Also, Jackson has the DKMG dinky, great guitar. Most come with the passive emg buckers which don't sound all that great, but for a beginner it's a great guitar. They run around 2-300.
>>
>>689229822
String-thru would probably be better for a beginner.
>>
>>689229320
Yep and there were a few regular models after those. RG1820X was the latest and that's what I have.
