Bilt guitars??

[Mechanical Birds]

Yeah, thank you guys.

The one I’m looking at is 3 Jag pickups in LS format. I ideally would like to get it turned into the typical 3 pickups and delay/fuzz Relevator. According to the website, though, starting prices for both models have around a $1,500 difference so it might not ever be something I can truly afford.

Anyone know if Bilt will build just a neck? I'm looking for the Marauder type 2 neck. Warmoth does the Starcaster, which is similar... But not quite. Or does anyone know of a custom neck builder who can? I may make a separate topic but figure I should ask here first.

I asked several years ago when I was working on a project, and they said they only build necks with their guitars, which makes sense.

I was in the exact same boat as you Camping and I got the same answer as Gavanti from them.

This one is mine

I'm actually thinking to have mine modded, but since I don't live in states, the shipping back and forth would be too expensive. I will probably have the changes made by some talented luthier here in Finland. I'm thinking of getting new pickups on this. Strongest contenders are now 2 or 3 TV jones style or other option would be 2 oe 3 P90s. Now the combination of things in this guitar makes this to be too close tonally feel wise to my Novo Serus J with Lollar Imperials.

That is HOT I love the guard instead of the metal plates (though I DO love the plates). It's very reminiscent of a P-Bass in my opinion. What are the pickups in it? They look like Roadhouse.

I personally am not fan of the pickguard. I traded my Fano GF6 for this so it is not specced by me. The pickups are Curtis Novak gold foils.. There are only few Fender CS Marauder videos where they use these so they are quite rare and difficult to find any info.

Sorry, I should've clarified. I don't personally care for the color/material of the pickguard, but I like the shape of it.

Then we are on the same page. I'm considering to change the pickguard if I swap to some pickups that don't fit with this guard. I'm thinking basic 3-ply white atm.

For that, I'd say mint or black. Or anodized

Nice, can't wait to see it! Any pics preshipping?
If I was the other side of the Atlantic I'd definitely have one, but unfortunately I just can't justify the price + taxes etc here

[javier-san]

[npfrs]

[javier-san]

[GreenKnee]

Oh wow! Did you just answer 'yes' when they asked what options you want?

Looks cool!

[BoringPostcards]

I’d love to take a whirl on that thing for a few hours with a looper.

[CROSS_guitars]

Wowzers. That's giving me anxiety just looking at it. Way too many electronics for me. haha.
Love the finish!
