I am not a hollow body guy but both these look great.

First go at a build, and I loved the experience. Plays fantastically well and even though I haven't adjusted the bridge, there is zero fret buzz. Can't edit post on IPad so will add headstock and back photos shortly.

sweet looking axes Marcel and Klegacy.
@ Klegacy why would you build 2 of the same kits when there is well over 100 to choose from? I love the paint but unfortunately will be docking points for not painting it yourself !

Hi Mally, you have to enter into the Rocktober GOTM thread. As you said needs headstock and back photos and a close up of the body so we can see the finish thanks. Looks great though.

Thanks @Frankenwashie .. if there is nothing in the rules about this why are people frowning upon it. I am proud of the work I did on both of these guitars. It was a ton of work, and a real learning process. Will leave it in, but was not happy with the comment about not painting it myself. I wanted a quality finish, and would not have come close to what I wanted on my own. Both are deep metallic candy finishes. I will leave it in there. I got the same comments on my yellow build as well, and was docked points for not painting it myself. Who knows this month .. we'll see.
