    This month was the hardest to judge yet! If next month is a repeat of this month I am going to run away and hide!
    Well done to all of you, I am impressed by the quality of these builds.

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....

    Far out...thanks guys for your lovely and very humbling comments.
    Big thanks to the judges, you really do have a difficult job each month.
    Congrats to Wokka, Daniel and all entrants.

    I am really proud of this one.
    Probably more for the fact that this one was a bit different and I had to work out how to tackle each step of the build and come up with solutions. But that really is the joy of guitar building and why we do it.

    This guitar seems to have opened up doors for me, with a few enquiries of interest.
    So, what to do for my next build? I really don't know....but hey, what a dilemma!!

    Cheers
    Andy

    Wow. What an insanely difficult job it must have been to come up with a winner. All entries looked pretty cool to me and there were offerings from so many different styles.
    Congratulations (again) to Andy for pole position but just as sincere congratulations to Dan, Wokka and all other entrants who were prepared to show off their builds.
    The standard in the GOTM comp is getting so high that I'm feeling a bit intimidated to enter. But I will ;-)

    All fabulous looking guitars this month, but the paisley design on the JM kit really did it for me and obviously many others.

    Congrats Andy on winning with a unique and beautiful guitar, and congratulations to all other entrants on the great builds you entered.

    Much like Lawry said, the standard is getting so high its a bit intimidating.

    Cheers

    Congrats to Andy and the runners-up. All the builds this month were amazing - any other month and each of them could easily have won. Well done all.

    cheers,
    Gav.

    Congratulations Andy and to all other entrants. As everyone said the standard keeps getting better, to win these days you have to pull off above an amazing build. You really have to think outside the box and build something different to win.
