February GOTM

February Guitar of the Month (for Guitars and Basses finished in January 2022)

Enter your finished guitar or bass here to be judged for the Pit Bull Guitars February Guitar of the Month.

Please remember:

For Guitars or Basses finished on (or before) the end of January.

One guitar/bass per member per month.
It must be a Pit Bull Guitars kit (mods and upgrades acceptable).
Guitar or Bass must be finished and playable.

We need at least 4 photos:
· full guitar shot from the front;
· close up of the body finish;
· shot of the back of the guitar; and
· close up of the headstock (please, no brand name logos)


Please post your photos in this thread. If you are having issues posting photos on the forum, please email them to brendan (at) pitbullguitars (dot) com

Please note: This competition is open to amateur guitar builders only. If you are making and selling guitars for profit, you are ineligible. Also while there are some stunning guitars around - you never know what the judges are looking for, so we encourage anyone who's built a Pitbull during the month to enter!

Competition for February closes at the end of January (Perth Western Australian time).

The sorts of things we judge on include:
· How well have the body and neck been prepared
· Is the choice of finish for the style of guitar appropriate
· How well has the finish been applied
· How well has all the hardware, pickups, etc, been installed
· Does it have the 'Wow Factor'· Which guitar would you make a beeline for in a guitar shop. That is, which one would you most like to take home.

BTW - remember that the winner is invited to be a guest judge the following month!

Does look very nice but I suspect the brand decal might mean you are excluded

Does look good pods

That thing looks amazing!

OK - a reminder to all. Pitbull Guitars / Buildyourownguitar.com.au don't encourage or support the use of trademarked logos on guitars. Full stop.

As such I have disqualified a couple of guitars from the current and previous competition. Unfortunately for pods_21 and Tiabella, I will be removing these entries and images that include these logos. While we respect individual's desires to decorate their guitars in their own ways, we respect the trademark owner's rights to their logos and other intellectual property.

Given we only had one viable guitar this month and two from last month, I will be rolling them together into a bumper March GOTM.
