  • I'm waiting for a wee little irish chap to come along and pop a self playing set on.

     

    like them all, a work in progress.    not worked out which string set up yet (on 3 builds)

  • That instrument looks great from any angle. I was wondering what it was that gave it such a clean look. Suddenly realised. No strings. I must try that on mine. Should improve the sound. Really lovely work.
  • check out the other pics for more info
  • mate to own real tools { here comes a wish list,..... thickneser, flat bed planner, dimention saw, fret saw, files, and on it goes}

    I did that one with an old (very untrue) rip saw, lots of hand sanding, glue and cheep cramps.  I know there is a far better way to do it than mine.

  • That's one very beautiful guitar - and great workmanship!

    I assume it's a solid body electric guitar, and not acoustic, because the sound board is so thick. I'l like to do something similar (laminate a sound board), but would require an electric planer to plane the sound board down to something less than a quarter inch. Maybe you can give us some more details on how you built it. I'm going to check out your other photos now.

    only? Or is it acoustic/electric?

     

  • Holy freakin cow, Thomas.  Spectacular.
  • Wow! Very striking! That is beautiful!
