fuck dude i actually need to learn to read bass clef. i’ve used treble most of my life and when i’m trying to get further into jazz stuff i’m running into not being able to find tabs and only actual notation lol

summing up a large part of why i dropped out in a single disco elysium screenshot lmao

my parents bought me this like $80 strat knockoff in middle school and it sat untouched in a closet in my parents house for like almost a decade until a couple months ago when i dug it up.

i’ve been wanting to start messing around with making or modding basses/guitars recently and didn’t wanna start with building from scratch or making a beginners mistake and damaging either of my basses so i figured turning a crummy guitar i barely play into a nice partscaster by replacing almost everything but the body would be a good starting place lol.

so far i’ve only just started pulling off the old sunburst finish and have some nitrocellulose guitar lacquer in the mail so i can hopefully refinish the body this weekend. in the future i’m going to completely replace the neck since this one is built really poorly and idk if it’s worth salvaging. the electronics aren’t the worst but i’m going to at least swap out the pickup and pickguard cause the old cheap plastic has that yellowed and kinda gross look and feel.

should be a fun little project!

now this is my kinda halloween
