Here is my latest guitar...I guess I will call it "Silky B's 9 String Gitfiddle" It is a 9 string guitar with the 3 high strings having double strings like a 12 string to get that chorus-y sound. Some of the specs Carved flame maple top with a purple/reddish stain Body wood is alder Neck wood maple Fretboard is ziricote Faux body binding Flame maple neck binding MOP diamond fretboard inlay Headstock logo is gold leaf w/ nitro clear over it 22 jumbo frets 24.75 scale length Gotoh tuning machine Gotoh bridge Recessed knobs,switch and straplocks PAF style humbuckers Bone nut All hardware on the back is black to hide it better Nitro black on the body/neck, Nitro clear over whole guitar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RestorationAD Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 The Hand of Doom Iommi inspired 23 fret Sapele SG. The neck is 13 piece Sapele/Bocote/Walnut with an Bocote Fretboard. Bookmatched Ziricote top with hooded winged figure in the grain. The Diablo mini humbucker is designed and wound to play the intro to Black Sabbath's Black Sabbath. The most evil cantankerous malcontent guitar I have ever built. Threw itself of the bench while I was building it and cracked its horn. The fretboard lost a fret ending up with only 23... I must have been mezmerized by the figure. The control plate had to be made 3 times as it kept curling up. While carving the top moved continually and reveals new cracks everyday. The finish went bad and had to be completely sanded off. The headplate, top, and body all reveled seams after finishing. Specs -- Neck : Sapele/Bocote Fretboard : Bocote Scale : 24.75 Frets : 24 Trussrod : Allparts double action Body : Sapele/Exotic Top Tuners : Chrome Hipshot Pickups : Handwound Diablo Mini Humbucker Bridge : Chrome Gotoh 510 Electronics : Volume and three way switch This started as a straight tribute to Iommi... it is now something of its own. The hand of doom.... maybe. Build Thread Website Gallery Top before parts installed Early neck shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
