This model is also the rarest, as it was only produces for a few months in 1981 before loosing the "Boogee" moniker. This one is from 1981, I personally feel this is the BEST model because it's still labeled "Boogee", and it's in the VERY Mesa-Boogie looking black-n-White color scheme. These things are legendary! There is lotsa chatter about these among serious players, but most folks have never even SEEN one in real life.īK Butler made only a few of these by hand from 1980-1981, then Randall Smith (Mesa-Boogie) asked him to use another name and in 1982-84 he made a few more labeled "Audio Matrix". I recently sold my stupidly rare Mini Boogee Pedal, but I made a little demo video before shipping her out. Hi gang! So this will be, for the most part a video blog.

And there are always the potential issues of neck warping/twistin/humps that are more of a pain to deal with if it's a set neck design. I also like to swap necks until I get one that seems to be the best fit. I guess what I'm saying is that while it wouldn't be 100% correct with respect to the original, I always tend to look for kits or pieces that substitute a bolt-on neck for this reason. I also know a guy with a nice Gibson Les Paul who knows there are cracks in the headstock, and failure is unavoidable at some point. In my case, I'd like to build a nice SG from a kit, and the SG suffers from a weak neck joint as it is.
But the set neck stuff does scare me a bit. I've built lots of stuff from just kit pieces all the way up to altering and combining existing necks, bodies, etc. Rcustoms wrote:look out ,The neck should be attached to the body with glue and you need to find a couples of clamps to put together that parts ,having previously painted each separately, without the paint cover the glue area. I'm just going to pm my email address, cheers mate. Secondly, you have some good points there, I'll see if I can buy some suitable clamps from my local Bunnings store before I start building the kits( I've still got to buy them though). send me a pm with your email and I send to you some books that detail the process better.look some pictures in my blog.sorry for my english let me help you a little few ,i built many guitars from kits or parts purchased in different stores,your first choice is very easy to set,but look out ,The neck should be attached to the body with glue and you need to find a couples of clamps to put together that parts ,having previously painted each separately, without the paint cover the glue area.i think this kit is a little complex for the first time ,the other one is neck is screwed and more simple.the next is paint,you need to apply a wood sealer and if you like to add some color use dye ,compatible with the sealant and go to finish with waterborne or urethane finish.

There's two kits that I want to build, one is for a PRS style guitar, the other one is for a headless style guitar, they're about $250.00 Australian each on eBay, the headless guitar kit is from a company in Dublin, Ireland and they quote free posting to Australia,the PRS style kit is from a company called JWebber Guitars and DIY kits.
