Hi again Marko & Bluesheart... Diesel Punk is exactly what went through my mind. ... Marko that little story I made up about the Treasure found in a discarded Trabant ,referencing one of your pics of this build ... Diesel Punk is a kinda "Coldwar" aesthetic to me ... like relics lost in time after the collapse of the "Iron Curtain" . Some people's take on it references Nazi Germany ,which I find bit sinister to be honest ! .. I Imagine someone in the past, at a USSR border post passing this guitar secretively to a man in raincoat and trilby hat in exchange for a pair of Levi 501's or a Rolling Stones LP :-D

Heres how the neck is built...
Brilliant in every way!
Awesome! Really makes me want to get busy and build one similar for myself! Would love to see how you made the neck.
Thanks Wade! See the Lost Ark under the stuff ;) It's full of CBG tools and parts :D
Incredible!!!!!! It looks like it could have been used in "Adventures of the Lost Ark"
