Phloggys TL-1

It's looking good Phloggy, but you need some more light on the guitar when you photograph it. Also, you need to get some close ups... so get right in there and let us see some of the detail.

Yeah, it was just a progress shot. Once it's in one piece I'll try a few more "glamour" shots.

I didn't get the finish I was looking for, but I think what I've ended up with is even better. I was going for the high gloss, shiny thing, but I've got a satiny semi gloss end result. It feels like silk when you run your hands over it. Awesome.

And sorry, maxaxe, I didn't see your question earlier. The design as cut out looks cool, but I think what I've done looks even better.


Your headstock looks brilliant - The photo is a little indistinct, but it appears to have a "stepdown" which I reckon is very cool.
The overall finish looks pretty slick too - great work.

Hey phloggy, you can do the soldering, the neck and bridge can be done at the end!!!

Yep, I carved it out. I'll try and get some better pictures of that tomorrow. I'm super happy with the way that worked.

Great idea and love the colours. The use of natural colour timber at the bottom of the step is great. Good job and looking forward to seeing the finished product.

Here are some better shots of the headstock

I think Adam's Tele stealing vibes are tingling now!!!!
Phloggy, get that thing under extremely high security!!!

Put another vote in the "love the headstock treatment" column. Very nice! :)
