ByronBlack Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 I just decided to dismantle it all, save the parts and call it a lost cause. Chalk it up to experience. I'll probably post the body on the Bay and see if someone will actually pay some cash to try and salvage it. ← I might be interested in it, how much would you want for it?

javacody Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 Wow. Great wood in that top. I agree with all the comments. I would have probably been a little gentler, but good job taking all that criticism and not having a hissy. I think you've got a great eye for picking out wood, I just think that with your body styles, the headstocks are all wrong. I think its time you made your first neck, or start buying necks with paddle headstocks. I also agree that if you are not going to do a time proven design, that you should prototype the body AND neck and see how they go together. Post some pics here and get some feedback. Man, I really like the top on that twisted SG, care to share your wood source? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try to go back and look at my account and see if I have the record. I really just did a "spalted maple" key word search. I've found awesome stuff looking for "figured maple" too.
