It seems the heavy enders have been busy this month... Another really nice job there from Rupert.

Hand crafting guitars, because Death Rays are expensive.
Wow Rupert...six string....I love the power of the big strings. Great finish. Looks awesome.
nice IB-6S build Rupert. It's a pity your photos are letting you down a bit. Try for some photo's in full natural light so we can see it better. The wooden knobs are a nice touch but personally they are a bit too big and the controls look cluttered.
What have you used to fill the fret slots looks like grain filler ? Some thin wood strips or thin white binding would have looked better.

Hi Everyone,
here's my entry for this month ... it's an LP1S, which I've taken my time with.
I've added Grover tuners and EMG 81/85 Active pickups, as well as some wood nobs I found to replace the usual ones.
Finish is DT Black Stump on the body and neck, with DT colourless (mixed with a little bit of black) on the top.
Final coats done with TO.
Nice to play and sounds good too!
nice build Rob, I presume the battery fit in the control cavity ?

good stuff Rob, just don't forget to unplug the jack after playing it or you will have a flat battery. So the EMG's sound pretty crisp and bright ?
Also looks like a bone nut ?
