Great craftsmanship as always Luis, very nice work.

I know it's been forever ago but thanks for the tips on top carving. You really helped out a lot.

Just need to choose a color now and sand and sand and.

I thought I had a thread on this one, need to finish her up.

Bill

Personally, I really like the volute style, creative. I dig.

Bill

Your bud will be most pleased whichever he picks.

Fine work.

Bill

I always love you builds, the most creative by far.

Bill

Are you using a Jackson neck or did you make the one shown? It's hard to tell from the light reflection, just curious.

Bill

I always look forward to your builds. Keep up the good work. I know it'll be cool, like always.

Bill

Nice axe, Doug buids the some great necks. I've got two from him. You should enter this into the GOTM. Great build.

Bill

Nice build, love the back of the headstock design. Keep up the good work.

Bill

Your builds are always so original. I like this one but the Rusicator is still no. 1, the Bearcaster is no. 2

Bill

What tools did you use for the carve?

Nice work, really good looking guitar.

Bill

I"ve decided to part with my Matchless for some new sound. This probably won't sell, but I thought i'd try.

Handmade/wired 1994 Matchless Superchief, 120 watts, extremely loud and rare. I think they only made 60 of these.

I bought this is 96' from the original owner and it's been in my house ever since, never gigged.

Hard to put a price tag on this because their almost impossible to find.

Make an offer if interested, cash or trade or both.

Bill

Clean work, great job Mark.

One of the best months.

If I were to vote seeing these for the first time, I would probably go with Metalhead28's Ginger,

but watching these progress day by day I had to go with RAD's Diablo.

Now that is a nice looking carve.

Clean!!

Bill

John, I think you need to do a group shot of all the guitars you have built.

What's the total anyway?

BTW, nice!!

Bill

You remade the entire neck to stay true to the build. Man that's a tuff one, but I think I would have done that too.

So you won't be needing that other neck ey? I'm visiting some family in southern Indiana tomorrow,

so just leave that out on the porch and I'll get it in the morning. HA!!

Bill

Looking really good.

Bill

Hello all,

does anyone know how you repair a fretboard inlay that is cracked from installing the frets?

I'm talking about an inlay that runs across one fret to another. See the pic below.

The pic isn't the actual crack, it's not nearly that big, but i'm sure you get the idea.

Let me know what the best idea to repair this is, i'm guessing superglue is involved in some way.

Like everyone has already said, what a tough group to pick from.

I hate following the crowd, but, I think that Metalhead's Invader was spot on.

Personally, I think if you had painted it black, added a couple

more inlays it would have become a novelty guitar rather than

an actual player. The theme isn't overpowering and taking your

eyes away from the overall guitar. I think the "less is more" saying

really applies here. To me, this guitar looks like it just rips. I would

own this guitar.

Bill

I'm not a big Tele fan either, but that is beautiful. Great work.

Bill

I know it's the Ernie Ball EVH, but I always fancied the aqua blue quilt.

I don't own this guitar, but I had one just like this in my hands at IRC music

in Indianapolis for $1650 back in 95', but didn't by it. Oh hindsight.....

Bill

I think folks were getting tired of my Tele obsession

Never get tired of good guitar building Mark.

WE'RE ALL OBSESSED WITH GUITARS!!! THAT'S WHY WE'RE HERE!!

This build will be really cool. I was thinking of doing one of these as well,

You mean you didn't want to drop $3K for the official EVH and spend only about $500 and build one just as good, why?? ha ha ha

Bill

I would suggest the Carvin guitar kit. More expensive, but you get what you pay for.

Carvin guitar and bass kits

Bill

You're busy busy. Looking good. I'm not a Washburn fan, but I always liked those Nuno strats.

BLASPHEMY! Just do it trans red instead.

I might do something like that. I was thinking of a satin finish and relic it....maybe.
