The DCF Art Series Guitars

DCF Art Series

Below are some guitars that I've designed, using a program located here.  I'll be adding more as the urge hits me.  Enjoy!
 
All the best,

The Original DCF Custom

This guitar was not done with the above program. I altered it with Paint.

This guitar is your standard OLP MM1 guitar.  I have an amber quilt one that I intend to repaint to look like this.  I also want to add all black hardware and a black Floyd Rose tremolo.  The knob and pickup switch will be  replaced with pieces that match the green stripes.  I can't wait to get started on it...

The DCF Special Edition

The DCF Special Edition comes in two different models - one features a double-locking Floyd Rose, and the other features a hardtail bridge.  Both models feature all gold hardware, Seymour Duncan "Evenly-Voiced Harmonics" zebra pickups, 22-fret necks, and a custom "DCF Art Series" logo in my favorite flourescent green.

The DCF Pro Custom

The Pro Custom comes with custom-designed EMG pickups in the neck and bridge positions, and a standard EMG single coil in the middle.  The pull-out volume knob splits the humbuckers, allowing these active pickups to produce any number of sounds, from a classic Stratocaster tone, to a warm, thick Les Paul.  Probably the most versatile of the entire group (other than the triple-neck monster, but at least this one can be lifted without help).

The DCF Pro Custom II

The DCF Custom
Simple, easy to use, and stylin'!

This guitar is a simple custom model.  It has a H-S-H setup, with the neck pickup being a Fernandez Sustainer humbucker, which allows infinite sustain when activated.  Good stuff.  As with the other DCF Custom, it features all black hardware and a Floyd Rose bridge.

The Nigel

The Nigel
Inspired by Nigel Tufnel's "Mr. Horsepower" guitar.

This little number was inspired by Nigel Tufnel's "Mr. Horsepower" guitar.  It features a quilted candy apple red top, black binding, and four Seymour Duncan Evenly Voiced Harmonics pickups.  Each pickup has its own mini toggle switch to turn it on and off, and there are coil splitter switches for the neck and bridge pickups.

The Monster

The Monster
Thre necks: Baritone (top), Fixed Bridge (middle), and Flod Rose-equipped (bottom).

"The Monster" features three different necks - a baritone on top, a fixed bridge with soap bar pickups in the middle to get a more vintage tone, and a Floyd Rose-equipped regular six-string on the bottom.  it would weigh almost as much as my car, but it sure would look cool, wouldn't it?
 
Each neck's pickups has a Volume and Tone control.  The selector switches on the top and bottom horns allow pickup splitting, and the one between the middle and bottom bridges allows for up to two necks to be active at the same time.

Red Rocker Custom DCF

Red Custom

A straight ahead rock and roll guitar - one pickup, one volume.  A simply designed guitar for rocking with.  It features a maple neck, black hardware, and a DiMarzio humbucker.  Topped off with a red burst paint job.

The Green Machine

New Green Custom

Starting off with a hand-carved archtop body, the Green Machine features minibuckers in the neck and middle positions and a Seymour Duncan '59 pickup in the bridge position, all of which are controlled by a five-way toggle switch at the top contour.  All chrome hardware stands out from the triple-burst paint scheme of black-green-black.  As always, it also includes a Floyd Rose bridge.
