Reckon I'm not the only one and keen to see what other multi projects others have on the go.
Only got the one "in the build" one is on order and other is a bunch of parts in a box so far :P
Looking good Waz
I am just about to start the wiring on the 12 string, i was going to do some finishing but the relative humidity is 71%
Just about to give DB's pickups another coat and i think the neck is done so i might get some tuners on it, then again all this can change in 5 mins :D
Going to start a dual humbucker tele
Well don't just talk about it, show us some shots of what your intentions might be haha.Quote:

The other box of bits is for a scratch build inspired by a Bo Diddly box, I just need a neck for that and I don't feel confident of making one.
That's different and truly unique. Would be a B#@ch to play sitting down unless that is a Steinberger type fold out bit I can see hanging off the bottom edge?
Had a Flying V for a very short while some 30 odd years ago and was it a PIA to play sitting down. The only way to do it was to wedge the V across your right thigh thus pushing the neck plenty to the left. Standing up playing it was only marginally better as it was hard to find the right balance with rear strap button placement. Great look, average sound that was a bit too shrill when compared to a LP, and moved it on after about 6 months of ownership. Would only buy another one as decoration.
waiting for the clear on this to cure:

Ohhh, that's really Purdy and love that shade of Magenta. Presume White Knight Acrylic for the top coats?
Is this for you or someone else as it is not a lefty?
thanks Waz, well spotted, it's for my sister.
body is flame maple and same colour as headstock, just doesnt show so well in this most recent pic
it's a 2k rattle can acrylic and takes forever to fully cure.
