Beautifully done Dedman! Seeing your handiwork is getting me excited that it's almost May, which means my FV-1G kit should be arriving shortly. If mine comes out anywhere near as nice as yours I'll be a happy man.

Purple beast goodness - that turned out really well, i like it a lot
looks excellent Dedman, love the gold and purple and Marshall amp knobs how cool are they ! Are the pups Tonerider rocksongs ?
Bet it sings when played dirty !
wow, its beautiful purple...
new strings and put the strap buttons on, will do intonation over the weekend

why I didn't hold off and finish this for next months GOTM
binding cracks. the cracks are in the back of the binding because no amount of sanding makes a spot of difference

looks great Dedman. Wouldn't worry about binding cracks it looks a bit more vintage. It will eventually get some dings in the body !
Putting off GOTM won't really help your chances as every month the bar seems to get raised !
sounds awesome btw, and that's what matters!
would be nice if the forum could hear it Dedman, you must be the only forumite without some sort of recording device, what about a mobile phone ? What are the pups TR rocksongs ?
The alnico PAF style Tone Riders Wokk. Na I don't have a mobile phone, no use for one, no use for more expenses either LOL. Although they reckon when the NBN comes through they will remove land landlines, how big of a back hand did that cost em LOL.
no worries Dedman, I'll keep that model Tonerider in mind for my next humbucker build.
Looks great Deddy, even with the binding cracks.
Just wondering if your digital camera has at least a short video functionality as most seem to have these days? If so, maybe we can get to hear some of these masterpieces.
Cheers, Waz
I think the bindingcracks add some extra's to the guitar. Again well done!!
Yep! That sounding and playing awesome is always more important than looking perfect. Still, it is a fine looking guitar Deddy.Quote:
