I read so many contradictory things that I got to a point where I was totally lost, so I decided to go with my gut and went with the EVH.
The more info I read on them the more confused I got.
I was between the EVH, SD custom custom, and a SD '78. Money was not an object here, it was just a matter of taste.Īfter thinking over and over and over and over again I decided to go with the EVH Frankenstrat pickup. Sadly, some of the new OFR are lacking a bit on the quality department. These suckers are very, very well made and work awesome!Ģ. OFR would have been great, but I decided to go with Gotoh for mainly 2 reasons:ġ. I'll be fitting my guitar with the following: I got an alder body from ebay to start with. I'll be SO damn busy that I had to start this right away or wait 4 years to do it!!! So I finally took the plunge.Īlthough I would have loved to make a 100% die hard replica, I had to cut some corners here and there due to lack of funds. Why now? Well, I got accepted at Law School and will be starting in August. It's been many, many years since I first toyed with the idea of building a Frankie replica (or something that looks like a Frankie, for that matter).
