C.S.Harper Guitars

Quick update: After doing this I went back in and installed a push/pull volume pot to split coils. Just got another range of tone out of her!

I don’t particularly like changing batteries, this Sterling Majesty7 is now all passive. I never used the boost function anyhow. It just stinks that when the battery quits the guitar is down, all for having the option of a boost. Also, while I was at it I wired in a treble bleed across the volume (à la Ibanez) and restrung with a 10-64 StringJoy set as well. Haven’t used them before so we will see how it goes!

We love scribbling your ideas down! Here’s a left handed 27 fret Ibanez inspired idea for a client in Texas! Neck thru with purpleheart back bone, maple and black walnut laminations with padauk wings. Makes me want to build something similar for myself!

Les Paul up on the bench for a setup. Guest requested 9-46 coated strings. Gonna go with a set of D’Addario XS. She’ll be ripping it up better than ever before!

Just a simple restring on this classical!

Well, we got her back rockin’ again. Structurally sound once again. We don’t handle any real paint/refinish here currently. All setup with 9-42’s. Stays in tune perfectly. Replaced all the pots, cleaned and soldered the bridge pickup cover into place, installed a pickup cover on the neck pickup to match. Made the transition between the very sad paint on the sides of the fretboard smooth. The paint transition around where the break was located feels nice.

In any event, the client is selling this guitar to help fund a left handed guitar for his son. If anyone in the SoCal area is interested shoot us a message and we can get you in contact with the owner. Signed by Jesse James Dupree of Jackyl!
