I got bored today and started working on this:
The body is made of oak plywood, the neck and hardware are from a Samick Fairlane, and the pickups/pots are from a MIM Fender jazz
This is not meant to be a high quality build, but just something funny to bust out at a party.
this is just a rough cut, I will do finish sanding tomorrow once the glue dries |

Just because. |

I am just gonna try and counteract it with strap placement and maybe some weights. |

If I get ambitious I may make a pickup cover (old fender style) that looks like the wing. |
