Hi Stan, looking good I love the tool you used to scrape the binding great idea

What a great colour, finish and still with clear to come..

[stan]

thanks guys!

The binding tool worked for a while, but it ended up actually being easier to just go back to a stanley knife blade on its own...

The binding on mine was full of fine scratches that ran along it, paint gets in, very tiresome to keep clean, even with taping

Just doing some touch ups that aren't really worth taking new pics for, but clear is going on very soon

I'd call that a "brooding" shade of green, giving a feeling of latent power.
The hook is really a GAFF; acronym for Guitars And Fightinging Fish.
This LP will be a killer when it's done.

Lokking pretty awsome Stan, take your time with the clear and she will look amazing.

[stan]

that's funny Max

thanks Jarrod, nice light coats and plenty of time between!

OK a bit more progress...

Things are moving a bit and here is the headstock and logos (thanks Andyport)
Clear is a bit wet here still, it looks pretty glossy, but will dry satin.

So the official unvailing of my homebrand - Sinister Axes

I am a lefty , hence Sinister, and it sounds cool with Axes. Sinister Guitars doesnt quite cut it

First pic is the front of the headstock and the other is the back. For the back I was going for one of those custom shop style logos you see on the reverse of Fender headstocks.

We all love pics, so here is a couple (crappy iphone in crappy light, nicer ones to come):

Nice looking headstock, Stan. And nice play on words too!

'sinister guitars doesn't quite cut it'

Digging it, Stan. You lefty heathens!
