Very very nice!
Gav, awesome LP looking forward to a sound demo. If you've run out of space on your wall for this I have some spare room ;)
Thanks all for the kind words guys! Today I got her finished. I filed a new bone nut and dialed in the action. The strings are now nice and low on the fretboard and she feels really nice to play. On went the truss rod cover and all is finally complete. What a great kit these ash LPs are! It wont be my last.
cheers,
Gav.
a couple more pics..
wow Gav thats Jaw droppingly nice, is the truss rod cover one you made ?
Good work getting a nice low action, looks like the bridge is as low as it will go. LP's are a great looking and sounding axe so sure it won't be your last.
So must be ready to enter GOTM !
Very nice Gav, I've been thinking of getting a LP kit at some point, I think the decision has been made!
Thanks guys! No Wokks, the black truss rod cover is from another kit I've got laying around. I actually made one for this build out of tortoiseshell but it wasn't up to standard. I'm going to try and take a few better photos of the beast before submitting for a chance at GOTM.
cheers,
Gav.
nice one Gav, trying to think what kit that shape TRC came from, I've seen a similar shaped one on an IB-6S but you haven't built one of them. Maybe the RC-1 kit ?
DAMN!!! That is so sweet looking Gav!!!
Thanks Rob :). It's a non-PBG kit Wokks. To be honest the TRC was the best thing about it!!
Here's a couple more glamour shots. Might have enough photos for GOTM now...
cheers,
Gav.
