Pawn shop guitar was damaged and treated poorly... had been scavenged for parts with old (bad) parts placed. Decided to replace all components... pots, switch, tailpiece and bridge, pickups, tuners and jack.
Didn't want to spend much time or effort in the body... quick sanding then a simple clear coat. Nothing fancy.
Rebuilt and played good... sounded good. But I just wanted it to look different than it did...
So the finished product was covered by stickers. Yes, it's appearance is loud, and I maybe went overboard with the stickers, but it covered (and distracts) that I didn't put much into the body. I leave this guitar in Colorado with my brother to sit in and jam with him.
Bought it for the neck, a cheap pawn shop guitar. Then didn't need it, so I rebuilt this cannibalized Epiphone Special LP. Body damage, ALL parts mis-matched... from tuners, to pots, and pickups too. Replaced them all. #pawnshop #guitar #rebuild #complete #lespaul #epiphone #betternow #goodguitar
