Custom Broadcaster Build demo

This is a demo of my mostly complete Broadcaster Partcaster build. It's just waiting on an Allparts FAT neck from Golden Era guitars. Come on Scott, get a move on!!

It was bought from an auction house: Gardiner Houlgate and I set about replacing hardware with a Callaham bakelite pickguard, Fender bridge plate and Callaham saddles, A set of Monty's Broadcaster pickups and loads of single slot screws and other hardware from Charles Guitars.
I said it was a Callaham wiring loom but it's actually a Charles Guitars loom. Oops

The body appears to be a one piece ash and came with an ultra skinny Fender neck from 1992. It must have come from an early '90's '52 re-issue and looks aged. It actually looks really aged just like the real thing but I'm sure it was expertly done as the frets look perfect. They may be low and skinny but that was vintage frets for you.

So I did a video of it before it gets its chunky neck.

I played it into a Two Rock Classic Reverb miced with a Rode NT1-A and SM57 straight into a Presonus Studio68C and recorded in Studio One.

No processing was used on the guitar parts and they sound like they did in front of the amp.
