david gilmour strat replica

[hafstrat]

Nice. Mine should be finished come september :-) Not bothering with the Gilmour switch though...

[mk2strong]

Good Job but where is the switch ? come sto see and hear my own REPLICA david Gilmour on my page !

cheers

[jacktheguitarman]

how did you get the binding on the pickguard to come off?

[Guitarchordhelper]

i am doing one, but a relic model

[gilisfloyd]

no neck switch, no trem arm, other than that...nice

[paramedic6801]

I just built a custom replica of gilmours. it has fat 50's, 69, and a seymour ducan. I also have a red strat set up like his and it uses the custom emg dg 20 pickups. like stevie bomd said. Buy the book. that is what i did and mine is set up exactly like david's. only difference is i used the re issued 57 neck and 62 body instead of the highly expensive. real deal.

[auldj]

Looks good!

Got to hear it though.....

[deepsofhell]

I made a Strat from All Parts, is a bit hard to find a decent vintage tremolo, no all the tremolos are good.

[steviebmob]

seems to there is a who;e bunch of people who know jack about the black strat! EMG's who??? Gilmours pick ups are standard strat originals front and mid, the rear is a seymour duncan! People if you really want to get to know Gilmour's Black Strat... do like i did and buy the fkn book ' The Black Strat' by none other than Phil Taylor (Gilmour's guitar Technician) £25 and worth every penny!!

[guitarnut34]

if I'm thinkg right then Gilmour's black strat that he used in Pink floyd had a 3 bolt neck (not sure of this) but I am sure that Guitar Wolrd just did I big write-up about that guitar this last summer you might look it up to see about getting the pickups on spot and I do know that it had a trus rod that had the "Bullet" end on it

[bobklose]

The Gilmour's Black Strat has 4 bolt neck...control on The Black Strat book by Phil Taylor, David Gilmour's guitar tech

Bye

[ediblefilms]

I am planning on making a replica (sort of) with a squier affinity strat and a black pickguard. I already have an HSS Fender w/ sunburst finish, and I kind of want something with SSS to expand my tonal range. I have been playing seriously for like 2 years, should i skip the Squier, or is it a good deal?

[ARTOFWAR2008]

where did you get this?

[steviebmob]

hmmm whats missing then... great looking gtr but no bridge pick up switch as on the original Gilmour black strat.

[joejoejoehearn]

There is a push push pot on the volume control that acts a the bridge switch.

[XxPhobiaAngelxX]

i am going to make this come christmas!! well not technicaly a gilmour replica but an american standard with a black pick guard lol. so it will at least look pretty damn close lol

[djangolian]

[theshesy]

Gilmour has EMG's on his...

nice guitar BTW...

[joejoejoehearn]

I know that he has emg's on his red strat, but i wouldnt say that its the nicer of the two.

[orioledan8]

i heard fender was actually coming out with a signiture edition... and selling it retai?

[destyled]

So where can I get a hold of the parts? *droooooling*

[joejoejoehearn]

i got most of the parts from america.

thanks

[elavd]

Congratulations!!!

It's a great guitar ;)

Which pickups did you put on?

[joejoejoehearn]

mid and neck are 54 customs. and the bridge is seymour duncan ssl1.

[weedmanus]

While having the same effect, the push/push toggle does not have the same look/feel as the mini toggle between the volume knob & 5 way switch!!

From looking at your upload, I'd say that's a Mexican '50s Classic neck you have there & not a '57 reissue as you stated!! The profile of the two are different...they are two different necks!!

All in all, though, I'm just another brick in your wall!! Nice Strat!!

[prompen3]

it looks like a neck from a Fender Classic Player 50's wich does have e V-neck but still its not a 57' reissue

[prompen3]

only two tings wrong with that guitar the bridge wich should have 6 screws and you miss the mini toggle switch wich combines the neck and bridge pickup.....

[joejoejoehearn]

It has a push push toggle switch which combines the neck and bridge pickup. And the neck is a 57 reissue. I prefer the two point bridge to the six.

thanks

[Santamaradona10]

the only thing is that he had a seventies neck

[prompen3]

The guitar has now got a 57'reissue neck on it and have not had a 70's style neck since the mid 70'ties

[RobEye79]

ok ok how much? I want one.

[joejoejoehearn]

£444 all genuine american fender parts exept the neck whick is mexican

[windskim]

wow joe... that must really have taken some super slick elbow grease for you to have been able to put together such a masterpiece. if only i could follow in your legendary footsteps and produce such a great tribute to a man worthy of such praise...david gilmour the god that he is...alongside other statuatory figures like uncle john, mr swystun and elliot vassalo. some day maybe i will understand your tastes joe ...but for now... see you on monday at climbing... we gonna overhang to da max

[felixduerringer]

Wow! What a nice replica you've got! I like David Gilmour and Pink Floyd very much and your guitar is just brilliant! I like it!

[joejoejoehearn]

thanks alot mate
