Tjilpi - Old fella - LP-1M

Well, after a lot of sketching I think I have reached a decision on a Krank Guitars headstock shape. A mix of a few different ones.

This isn't the printable version as I have discovered a few of my measurements are out. Bah! Another day. Plus I am still trying to work out how to round off some of the corners.

I have also started cutting out a few templates for my scratch DC junior special build. I will add this to the non-PB gear once I have achieved a bit more.

signature headstock = cool

Looks good, Kane. Individual and familiar all in one.

Thanks.

I am a bit of a traditionalist when it comes to the guitars I love, however I needed something to call my own but not too far removed from the original.

Once I have a few scratch builds under my belt I may try a complete new guitar design, again it will probably be similar to others but fine changes. Pickup configuration is the hard one. Love a single coil in the neck, a humbucker somewhere and I haven't heard a P90 scream yet (not in my hands anyway). How do I get all three pickups in one guitar without looking ugly?

Very cool.

Headstock looks awesome Kane! love it. Keen to hear all about your scratch build too!

cheers,
Gav.

Seymour Duncan P-rails will get you all three pickups in one pickup.

That headstock design looks great! I wish I'd found that when I was building my LP.

Barg - thanks

Gav - isn't quite round enough but close. Scratch build, need more time in the garage. Found a nice slab of wood that should be good for 2 necks. No idea what it is.

Pablo - they look the goods, now I just need to find a forum that breaks them down. That way I can build them myself like my other guitars to date.

Timsan - honored to think the shape is appealing and you would use it. Might make up a pdf template when I need it. I

Here is a teaser for you Gav, will create another post later on when I progress a bit further.
