SHIRTS

Yep, maybe I can defray the cost of web-hosting and my own pickup purchasing habit with some MERCH - as seen on the front page of this site ...

*Note cheap sunglasses, experimental beard and extremely heavy Koa wood and 6061 alloy guitar ( not of my own manufacture )

For the time being I am my own Merch Bitch ... so email me here to check them out, they're some kind of worn vintage-vibed grey on grey for the subtle, monochromatic rock-gear fetishist.

Cheers, AP

LEFT-town

It's always nice to get one out the door here at Harvester World Headquarters ... and I'll still get to see a lot of this one as it's gone to my friend Willy from The Hired Guns ... just in time for our CD launch next weekend.

I guess he liked the look of my Daphne Blue Custohm and wanted to add something similar to his considerable quiver of lefty guitars.

More pix here and many, many more here!

... good clean fun folks. Now back to repairs and repaints before I can finish anymore custom jobs.

Thanks for looking and leave a comment if you're feeling constructive or curious ( or confused ).

Cheers, AP

Deluxe Redux

Les Paul Deluxe back in one piece.

The finish on the neck is bubbly old acrylic - not my work ... i wish i could have refinned the whole neck with this repair job but it had to get back on the road PDQ.

the next day at the St Kilda Bowls club, Kim ( X, Whiskey Priests etc ) wrangles said Lss Paul back into submission ...

thanks Carby for the photo

Spring ?

... what Spring ? it's freezing out there in that workshop.

time for a walk in the sun with the pup ( 9 years old a few weeks ago ! ) and the new camera.

and some colour sanding ...

 

not long now ... and the pickup has landed - it's from Lindy Fralin - a P90 5% overwound. Yum.

Cheers, AP

Busy Day

Lots of progress today on 2 different guitars - my 'Simpletone' model inspired by old Harmonys and Silvertones of the 60's ...

& a lefthanded Custohm model for my friend Willy ...

now with paint !

not to mention getting stuck into my backlog of repairs.
