The
Yellow Bird
I built
this guitar in the "big hair" 80's. It's the only one I ever
built on a whim for no one in particular. Sure looks loud! I felt the
black and red worked well with the "safety yellow". A
reflection of my soul? - not sure about that!
The most comments on this thing were aimed at the 3-ply black-red-black
"bikini" pickguard. Go figure! With all of its other hot rod
features like locking tuners, back-routed trem, and complicated wiring
with fancy switches that give it 10 distinct sounds with only two
pickups! This is the third neck on it. The first one warped and the
second one sucked. This neck is great. The funny-shaped headstock was
cut down from a Strat-shaped head in effort to improve the E & B
string response. It worked well. I gigged with it for a few years and
it's now with its 3rd owner. Even though it's not his main
axe, Marc really digs this thing. It always feels like the "wayward
son" when it comes in for a check-up. By the way - it lives in a
yellow with black & red plaid gigbag! Really cool & a lotta
fun!
