Step 5Ride and Destroy
I took it down a bunch of hills and got some good footage. Then one of my friends fell off it and it skidded into a curb with a sharp corner and the neck split from the headstock to the fifth fret.
I wasn't mad. We had proven that it could be done, and had fun doing it.
I would like to put up some video, but don't have a way to edit it at the moment.
guitar (as box of parts) $0.00
wheels and trucks $0.00
strings $3.00
grip tape $5.00
total investment = $8.00
I have since fixed the neck, sprayed it black, filled all the holes in the body with Bondo body filler, and am currently refinishing it in silver and turning it back into a regular guitar. I'll probably add some photos of that when I'm done.
But I'm leaving the grip tape on the pickguard.
Want to see where the neck and body are now?
Want to see what happened to the electronics?

nice looking repair on the neck and like the colour--however the grip tape pickguard may be a little hard on your fingers......Very Cool Idea alround
