...the fir project...

...well, this one is unusual...a combination of strat and tele...from old parts in bad condition that had to repair or reconstruct...one tone pot and a switch which changes the two modes, strat and tele sound...a fat neck with alternative nut and true vintage keys from 60's...a stable no trem bridge...and some other patents and modifications... 

         ...that make the sound of this guitar ingredible for clean playin'...

...the musk of death...

...a freaky series of hand made gain pedals...
... we search a lot to make these pedals...
...a lot of reading, tests, changes...
...i think we managed to touch the Sound...

...a high gain pedal...

...a booster which works... 

...in 4 modes...

...as a clean booster....

...as a gain booster...

...as a clean or gain booster 

...with compound treble range...

 

...and a shocking...                                

...tube screamer... 

                                                      

 

...and they work perfect together with the best pedals...

...such as Jum pedals and el. harmonix...

...about freaky pages...

...freaky pages are just the result of my experimentation in music and sound...

...after 33 years of playing...

...to search and find ways to upgrade guitars...

...to find how to make a guitar and to make it good...

...to share this experimental knowledge with friends musicians...

...to type my soul on my guitar's sound... 

                                           ...nothing more, nothing less...

 

 

                                                  ...see you on stage...

...changin' a low price guitar to a superb one...

...an epiphone SG special that plays everything you like...

                                                   ...as a very high budget one...

...i made this experimentation to an sg special of 2005, made of samick for epiphone because of the very good quality of samick constructions...

 

 ...changin' the tuning machines...

 ...with cluson style vintage keys...

...changin' the angle 

of the neck...

for very low action...

...and fixin' the level

of the frets...

...changin' the angle 

of the switch 

to move up and down 

the pickups easily...

...changin' the pickups 

to 13,6 & 16,9 kΩ 

custom pickups

for neck & bridge...

...and fixin' the wiring

and the shielding...

...and makin' some 

aesthetic changes

to pickup rings
