Excuse my ignorance. Will photos of all the contenders be put up in one place? And is voting done publicly or via private message?

The results are hidden until the voting period is declared over.

Damn, 12 brilliant examples of great craftsmanship.

Vote placed but I wish I could have had a 3, 2, 1 option, then I could have voted 1, 1, 1 :D

Just realised I needed to be on the desktop version. Won't work on mobile or Tapatalk versions of the page.

Have casted my vote and it was not easy. I just ended up voting for the one, in my opinion, that had the most wow factor! When you look back over the years work you realise how amazing these kits can turn out

Best of luck to everyone.

From the unique headstock to the detail of the body, I think we can all agree that this is an impressive bass.

But we all know - "to the winner the spoils".
Eclipsing all other entrants, this special guitar certainly impressed. Congratulations to the winner for 2018:

Awesome finish on that IB-7.

Who said you can't get a good grain and finish with Basswood? Here's proof you can.

Great encore.

It's awsome to win guitar of the month, guitar of the year is another level. Well done to every one. In 10 years do we get guitar of the decade!? Maybe, if we're all here that long

theresimon

Hi Guy's, let me just say WOW! I did not expect this at all. So many amazing builds, didn't think I'd stand a chance at guitar of the month let alone this. So thanks to all those that voted for my guitar. We are all winners, because we are a part of this great forum and these amazing products from Pitbull guitars. I really had a blast building my perfect guitar and look forward to building many more.
