    Mate you really are king of the ragged burst. Looks like you got some nice grain too.

    I'm just back from a week in Tassie where I didn't have internet access for most of the time. And when I come back, look what has been posted. Man! There are so many gorgeous builds being posted here that I can't think of enough superlatives to go around. They all look excellent guys!

    Another great collection to choose from this month. As I am realising, it must be a difficult decision for the judges.

    Hi all,

    Well I finally got my truss rod cover and a sunny day for pictures so I am finally entering my Dream Catcher LP 1.

    This is my first build and I decided to keep everything stock to see how it sounds.

    I painted the back and sides in metallic blue acrylic spray paint and I used acrylic artist ink to do the burst on the front. I chose turquoise and aqua marine blue for the burst with some black to accentuate the grain.

    I even attempted making my own waterslide decals for the headstock. I had a blast with this build. Such a satisfying experience.

    Enjoy, I know I am

    Brian

    Here are the headstock pics for Dream Catcher
    The truss rod cover is suppose to say BBG for Brian Ball Guitars. The font I chose has a very similar looking G and C.

    Cheers,
    Brian
