...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
and the pot knobs...

















                                                       ...lights on ...

...the transformation project...

...a freaky vintage power strat 

that ''ll be loved from classic guitars' players...


...because of the neck that i believe doesn' exist on any stock guitar...

 

...gives the opportunity to a classic guitar player to play...

                                                       ... on a familiar to a classic guitar neck...

                                                  

                                  ... and plays hard!!!









 ...the neck of the guitar 
is a monster...

...taken from a 
taiwan osmond LH II  of 1992...

...it has 2,6 cm thickness 
on nut...

...3,2 cm thikness on body - neck joint...

...4,5 cm width on nut...

...and 6 cm width on joint...






 




...9,5 - 12 radius...

...20 years old open keys on headstock...

...graffit nut...

...jumbo frets...

...and 5mm of true rosewood on fretboard...












  ...the bridge...
  ...is a korean stock bridge..

   ...very stable and solid...









             ...but...

 ...the saddles' screws 
have all different length 
not only from all 
the others stock bridges
but also between them...

...to bring the harmonics 
to 12th fret correctly.,. 


...and that's because 
of the big differences 
between neck and body...










   ...the body...
   ...is made of heavy alder...
   ...taken from
   a japan jackson guitar of 1996...





   ...the pickups...
   ...is a japan jackson's set...
   ...of the early '90's...


               ...and believe me...

               ... they are dirty !!!
