That's looking the goods, Pablo. Glad you like it better, too!

That's almost exactly what I was thinking of Pablo. Nice work! 8-)
Yes well done Pablo I'd buy an axe of that shape for sure. What drafting program are you using ?Quote from stui on April 18, 2013, 08:14

CorelDRAW. Probably not the most efficient program, but it's what I'm most comfortable with.Quote from wokkaboy on April 18, 2013, 08:34

cool no worries Pablo, well you have done an excellent job of the design shape, think the majority of the community should like it and hopefully go to the factory to cut it !Quote from pablopepper on April 18, 2013, 09:43

Spose now we have to work out the rest of the axe neck material, headstock shape and bling used

ya could try using Google Sketchup, allows a 3D perspective of anything, as it is mainly used for architecture!
So I've changed my mind re: hardware colour. I initially thought gold, but on further reflection, I think black would be better. Reasons being, while gold brings a certain amount of bling to a guitar, it's a soft metal, and gold plating tends to wear away quickly, and tarnish easily. Black chrome is still a little bit different from the bog standard chrome gear, and will wear a lot better than gold. It looks very cool against a spalted cap too, as proven by the LP1-S.
Just my 2c.
P.S. I'm still actually a fan of chrome gear too, and wouldn't be upset if the hardware ended up being chrome.
It's very easy to get plain chromed hardware, so I wouldn't worry about the supply black hardware as standard. Onwards!
Was there a consensus for a H-S-S pup layout?
Trem or no trem?
String-through set up? Or even strat-style block?
I'm all for black hardware, but not for a spalted top, flame all the way!
HSS is probably a good pickup config, something for everyone. And I thought the consensus was for a tuneomatic style bridge to a string through body thingee.
What about controls? Master volume, master tone, 5-way switch? That's what I'd choose or is that too simple?

I guess you and I will have to disagree on the spalted vs flame Pablo. I love a good spalted top. There's something classy about it imo.Quote from pablopepper on April 19, 2013, 11:38

I'm a big fan of the string through setup on the prs kit, looks sexy and I've never been a massive fan of tremolos. HSS is fine for the pickups, the pup arrangement is not a massive deal for me.
