    Now that's what I call a custom guitar. Just the design in itself is genius, let alone all the programming involved aswell.

    Top stuff man.

    Thanx gents

    I have a neck, its nice came off something unknown, pity the head-stock is already done but its got a nice finish and is true!
    will be clear coating in clear so all natural I love natural woods so stay away from staining or dyes..maybe with that manmade stuff i will give some colors a go

    thanx
    they screw from behind into little ears that ive left into the stock..just reverse of the way it does from a normal top mount also its a pretty snug fit as the tolerances are quite fine...still discovering what my feeds and speeds are in terms of how fast or slow it can go...will get better as each guitar gets built, this is only number 3 so a long road ahead and soo much to discover and learn...each inspires me for something different in the next...my head is already into the next one and thats gonna be a stonking design!...
    cheers

    Reminiscent of a classic surf board, a monarch butterfly & some baroque instrument that won't quite come to mind.
    The whole deal has me gobsmacked - right outside the square in the best possible way.
    Your work really is an inspiration . . .
