Dedmans FV-1G

[Simon Barden]

It is a lovely purple.

Just an observation, but you could have reversed the headstock logo, so that the V went with the headstock shape.

Wow! Nice job man

Looks great. Yet again it is another Dedman masterpiece.

I did think of that Simon, even laid it down as a test but ..........V would never go with the flow.

Is it just me or is the fretboard cut on a bit of an angle to the headstock?

[Joanne40]

Love the colour in this Dedman! The burst makes it.

[Dedman]

first polish. Andy the fret board is on a bit of an angle but the Nut is square. I couldn't square the tip of the fretboard off because the binding ends there.

nearly there. Had wiring issues that had me tearin my hair out. Finished up doing it all again from scratch using a different Volume pot and it worked fine. Dud or cooked I don't know.
I admit I lost a lot of enthusiasm for this build when the binding stained in some cracks but I pushed on and she spoke this morning. still some tidy ups to do, another polish and set of gold strings when the neck settles .
I modded the pick guard by cutting out the bits that run up around the bridge and between the pick ups, and yes, they are Marshal amp knobs on the pots . Pick ups are Tone Riders and she sounds very nice indeed so far.



one in the sun a bit
