This Stratocaster type blue sunburst body shows virtually no signs of wear and was manufactured in 2021. This well looked after Strat body still has a very deep shine. The wood is possibly basswood or Paulownia. This is one of the most striking bodies that has passed through our hands in recent times.

The guitars well sell are made up of a combination of new and reclaimed parts. Our guitars are never perfect but they are great value and unique.
This guitar body is made from salvaged timber, pieces of recycled wood that were off cuts from the construction of a house roof and a piece from an old oak sideboard, constructed and shaped in our rat infested shed in North Devon.
Reused and reshaped, these discarded bits of timber gems have been given a new life. This means that the timber we use is now upcycled, repurposed and recycled.
The neck is new and has been fitted with a bone nut.
We’ve been busy in our workshop
You can now buy our own brand of recycled and upcycled guitars. Each one is individually hand built in our workshop. The guitars we make are made from new and reclaimed parts. What we intend to do is create guitars that are reasonably priced and very different from what is available at the moment.
We use parts from the 1970s right up to the 2020s, mixed together to give the experience of ‘heritage’, our aim is to produce guitars that are very playable and sound better than the average homogenised guitars that are out there.
They won’t be shiny and shimmering – they will look rugged, with a few battle scars but they will compliment any serious guitar collection.

Rough layout of next salvaged wood guitar ready for the neck (then wire up the electrics and add a few strings).
Reused and reshaped, these discarded bits of timber gems have been given a new life. This means that the timber we use is now upcycled, repurposed and recycled. Each guitar is therefore unique. This body has bumps and dings and has an oiled finish.
Everything has been recycled
This one is made from salvaged pieces of wood that were off cuts from the construction of a house roof and a piece from an old oak sideboard.
All the electrics and pickups are from salvaged or broken guitars – the neck is from a brand new damaged guitar.
This body is from a project guitar made a couple of years ago, it has been used. The paint, 3 colours, red, green and black was an experiment, one that has since been replicated on other builds.
This Stratocaster body is medium in weight and is 43mm thick, with a 56mm neck pocket.

We have begun making guitar bodies from salvaged wood.
Salvaged wood is basically reclaimed timber, wood that was used in construction and buildings or furniture. We reuse and reshape these discarded gems and make them into a guitar. This means that the timber we use is now repurposed and recycled. Each guitar we make is therefore unique.
The example below is made from salvaged pieces of wood that were off cuts from the construction of a house roof.
Each piece of timber was glued, doweled and clamped together and the guitar shape was drawn onto the face. The first part of the journey is documented below.
Busy day in the workshop…
Rough cutting out a guitar body made from recycled materials. Next step the chisels and sander, then carve out the neck pocket and pickup holes.
Neck pocket created and the body shape is more precisely shaped. No electric carpentry tools were harmed in this production. Next step cut out the pickup and control panel holes…
Fender Squier Body – #stratocaster #luthier #guitarbody #fender
These are the best bodies to build a perfect partscaster or upgrade you Squier Bullet. I have fitted genuine Fender Mexican necks to these bodies in the past and they are a superb combination as good as, if not better than a genuine Mexican Stratocaster. The general consensus is that SE bodies are made from Agathis, although some were apparently made from Alder.
This SE body is from approximately 2000 and has a few dents, bumps and scratches but still has its deep shine.
