Expert: Andy Date: 7/4/2008 Subject: brads guitar and pickgaurd
Question i would like to no what type of body his custom guitar has and what kind of pickgaurd and what guitar i can find with the same pickgaurd
Answer Hey Brian...sorry for the hold up,,twas outta state for a bit for the 4th weekend,..anyhoo on to brad's guitars.
The dan macdonald custom(his tech/friend) was based off of a vox 1960's hurrican model as well as another small name brand.It was constructed out of hondouran mahogonay,had gotho tuners,a floyd rose locking trem,a semouyr duncan jeff beck in the bridge(JB)/single coil,then another humbucker,,this one out of an old dean guitar he had lying around.He stained the guitar in a soap bath to give it a natural looking finish.
the pickguard is just your usual blackpickgurd,,likely something that matched the body..but i don't think it was custom made per say.
