What Guitar Are You Playing At This Very Moment...

Andertons had a few b stock Delta King 12’s at really good prices a few months ago.
I thought about getting another so I could run two together .
I took to long to make my mind up and when I went to buy they were gone 😡.
 
Have you done any more mods to it ?
Not since putting it back together. Next string change I may change the piezo (under bridge) on/off switch to be a volume pot. Right now it's wired on/off but in parallel with the magnetic pickups when engaged. I'd rather have it wired separately to the output so I can use it by itself when I want. Other than that I'm pretty happy with everything else. This guitar has at least double the acoustic energy as all my other electrics so you really feel it when you pick the notes. Probably the main reason I've always loved this guitar.
 
Wow what is that Fuzzlord ??
It's an old Lindert that I've had for over 20yrs now. It's gone through a lot of changes and this is the latest. I repainted everything, laser cut a pickguard and added Dimarzio pickups. Reshaped the the headstock too so it wasn't a thumbs up shape anymore, lol. The lacquer is starting to check which is what I was hoping for -- so now it looks a bit more worn in.
Oh, and refretted the neck as well.
 
Wow, cool. I love the red pickups. Do the holes and grill cloth have a function, or are they for looks? It almost reminds me of the openings on a old 1940s or '50s speaker cabinet.
Yep, that's the look they seemed to be going for. It's different so that's why I snagged one then. It's a semi-hollow design so they do serve a function to a point. Although there is a very thin backer board behind the grill cloth to help keep it intact. But the top vibrates quite a bit. A very bouncy feel.
 
To add, it's loud acoustically to the point that it's distracting enough if playing through open-back headphones.
