I saw these this afternoon as well. Even for someone like me with either the tools or the ability these are very interesting...
very good idea i like the sound of that
Thanks to my 18th a couple of weeks ago I've acquired a few goodies that in
theory will allow me to try a scratch body build.
Hey DB, since you're routing the pre-made bodies is there the possibility for custom routs?
e.g. humbucker routed tele.
Mmmmm... I can imagine the real StratoPester and even my LP being built out of these woods.... *drools on the floor*...
Adam, can you reveal any other wood that DB can get??
No worries Mate. I have the templates so I can do this for the same price/<\\/p>[]<\\/p>/Quote from tcjbrown on August 4, 2013, 16:06

Wow this is great news. Just last night I was searching for body blanks, then you hit us with these gem's.
Any chance you will have some top caps. 5mm/16mm.
Also some thickness dimensions in the product description would be handy. Even if its just approximate thickness.
I am ludicrously excited by this. My woodworking father is going to go nuts on the Blackwood....
