Setch Posted April 9, 2005 Report Share Posted April 9, 2005 I've been waiting for a slow month to toss my hat in, but it doesn't look like we'll be getting one anytime soon. In fact, I've decided it's now or never - if the standard gets any higher I'll start building matchstick accordians... So: -Chambered Les Paul -Plain maple top, mahogany body and neck w.RW fretboard w.22 medium frets -Creme binding on neck and body, RW headveneer and agoya inlays -Sunburst top w.cherry red back,sides & neck (not pink/purple - it's reflecting the blue sky!). More pics, plus the construction diary can be found on my blog. Hope you like it - good luck everybody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a very low ZERO FRET... "OMG!"... and its fretless, well it must be cheaply made in China- oh well. Last time I said that the next one would be all shiny and glossy, I guess I lied. After comparing some tests of different finishes I just had to go with satin. It just looks more appealing to me, but still not as appealing as a poly/oil finish. Its not perfect, but my 50th one will be... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
