Looking good. Bet there's not many other purple double neck SGs around. How long did it take to string up and stretch out all those bad boys?

Looks great Warren, a lot of hard work has gone into that beauty. Well done mate.
Hey Elliott, saw John and Jean-Luc and the boys in Brisbane, way back. I was into Jazz Fusion at the time. What a concert!/<\\/p>[]<\\/p>/Quote from Bass Guy on July 30, 2013, 06:09

My strings are STILL stretching, so the SGD-612 should take a looooooonnnnggg time to stretch out completely!/<\\/p>[]<\\/p>/Quote from pablopepper on July 30, 2013, 07:37

Hey Callum, you know you can stretch out strings as part of your string changing process right? If done right your guitar should stay in tune from then on.

Yeah, but I forgot to do it this time :P
the strings on the LP arent stretching much, they are nearly stretched out completely, so I should be able to intonate it easier soon!

yes stringing it up took almost an hour, as it's my first 12 string axe and you can't fit the tuner winder on the middle 9 pegs (6 treble strings of the 12 string and 3 bass strings of the 6 string). Plus the 12 strings that come with the kit aren't labelled so I've put them on with some guess work with the gauges, but have a pack of D'darrio 12 strings so could see what gauge went where.
I'll run it in with the cheap strings and put decent ones on after that

Looks good Wokka
Looks great man.
Cool pic with the word "guitars" in the reflection of the pickgaurd. Was that intentional or just an accident.

yes the reflection of part of the 4D Guitars sign was intentional. A few builds ago I jagged the reflection in a photo and now line it up
