I dno if you guys care or not but whatever.

The guitar I currently have is my uncles 1988 Peavey Falcon that I am "borrowing". I'm probly gunna end up keeping it though. I was realyl thinking of buying a guitar body with pickups and bridge on ebay for 100 bucks. or 118 bucks canadian without s&h. The body is from a rare Tom Delonge signature. Does not come with the neck. I'd like to make my own guitar so I could buy it and paint it any colour I want with this website I came upon on google. it tells you how to do it.

I know some people have guitars on this site and play but I'm just wondering if anyone has made their own. either buying different parts from places or building on from scratch.
 
ok thanks for your opinion. My parents would probly say "you already have one" or "you don't need it" but it's worth a try. even if it takes a bit more money than it should I can learn some stuff from doing it. but I'll wait and see if anyone bids and what the reserve is gunna be
 
Heres some pics if you guys wanna have a look.. You guys might look at it as a regular guitar but it is actually a signature model from the frontman of blink-182 Tom Delonge. They were discontinued in like 2002.

dno if I meantioned but couple paint chips but a lot of guitars do. looks just dusty in the pic

Complete mint guitars like these go for well into the 800's. go on ebay search "Tom Delonge" in Musical Instruments and have a look at some of the guitars, they are going for lots of $$$
 
DUDE! I LOVE BLINK! thats why I realyl wanan get this guitar body. Im actually wearing an Angels And Airwaves sweatshirt right now =) blink was ****** awesome but the lead singer and guitar player was getting mad that he couldn't get what he wanted (time off, skipping some shows) whatever. I've heard smoe rumors they will be getting back together and recording this summer but I don't think it's true. you need time to write songs.. and plus-44 is still touring (bass player and drummer of blink's new band) so I dno what to believe.

I just found out the reserve on the guitar body was $250 amaerican I guess. Plus s&h then convert to canadian money. then I would have to buy a neck/strings. i dno if it's worth it. he bought a new set of Seymour Duncan pickups that are like 100 bucks american. so I would say it's probly around the right price but just s&h gets me.. i dno I'm still asking him questions
 
and this guitar was manufactured in between 2001 - 2002 when Tom Delonge was in the Blink-182 era for the person who mentioned angels and airwaves. but Tom Delonge now has a gibson signature line that is based on a gibson es-335 hollow body. they're expensive
 
DAMN I want an amp that big! I had a marshall 15 watt then I saved up and bought a Line 6 30 watt. thought it was awesome. but now I regret buying it cause it doesn't sound as good loud as my friend's amp.. so if I wanna buy another amp my dad will be like you just got one...

I bet that big marshall costed you a lot of hard earned money!

nice acoustic klutchbuster. I never realyl like to play them just cause they're so big. they always make my ribs sore from the edges.
 
Fender sells a signature tom delong strat. Maybe you already new that?

Fender DID sell a fender Tom Delonge strat. They were only in production from around 2001-2002. So you can't buy them new they are discontinued. Tom Delonge now has a deal with Gibson and it's based on the gibson es-335 hollowbody. Nice guitar but expensive
 
Heres my guitar. kind of borrowing it from my uncle. It's a 1988 Peavey Falcon. Nice guitar plays AMAZING but I want something that I can call my own

How much does a decent amp usually sell for? My brother had one of the cheapo 15 watt things to learn on, but it just sounded like ****. For christmas I picked him up a 50 watt yamaha amp for like 30 bucks on ebay (used) and it sounds 10 times better than that cheap thing. I hear yamaha amps aren't the greatest out there, but it has to be at least 10 years old and it sounds just as good as any other ones I ever heard.
 
I think the best amps are Marshal, Fender, Line 6. I have a 30 watt line 6 amp and im a little pissed off cause I thought it was giong to be better than my first 15 watt marshal practice amp. but the amp sounds good when it's turned to a decent sound level but when you crank it, it just doesn't sound as good as my friends Fender amp. I should of waited and got a bigger amp but I needed a louder one. I can always save up for a marshal stack that is like 1 500 bucks canadian. big amp. my 30 watt amp line 6 with effects on it costed around $360 canadian.

Yamaha audio equipment is far superior to most other companies... or at least thats what ive seen and heard.
