    I'll make a compromise with you...

    I'll have that guitar.... and you find a way to be ok with that...

    Deal?

    Jokes aside, that's gorgeous. Im even thinking of doing something pretty much exactly the same. The colour is just Yum... and the finish gloss also yum.

    Plus I like the headstock.

    And the FCH black... Looks Beefy!

    And the back - really nice..


    ... and so on and so on.

    Sorry mate , my sister has it now - was built for her. Besides she is a crack shot with a Glock , if you think you can get it from her, by all means...

    Seriously guys thanks for the kind words. There are serveral awesome builds in the making on this forum, and if any of them post here in time , they are all worthy contenders, I'm just glad to have it done and in the comp.

    I'll borrow it... for like...a really long time.....

    Lol 😀

    But like you said... The general quality, creativity and overall great stuff that comes out of the community is awesome. Heck, I'm yet to start my second PB Guitar, but MAN am I looking forward to it - each time I see a build diary, I see new ideas, or guitars (like yours) that I think "Yep - I want one of those"... I entered December's GOTM, and just watched em all come riding in... And with pretty much every one of them changes my opinion of the kind of guitar (some I might not have wanted until I see the creativity of the ones on here).

    You're 100% - every single one of these are all awesome - I'd have em all if I could So I'll stick with the kits and make em myself.
    I told my wife they are basically 3D jigsaw puzzles. She's just happy I'm not annoying her
