Prs'ish Project

[daveq]

I know, ... what could be less inspiring, less creative, less interesting than the one millionth PRS style homebrew guitar. What can I say? I've never owned one, rarely played one, but I thought I would give this carved top thing a try. When I use the PRS name, I certainly do not claim to have reached anywhere near their level of craftsmanship - I just use it to describe the shape of the guitar.

It will have:

- Alder body with 3/4" quilted top

- Curly maple / Wenge laminate neck (7 piece if I remember) with Wenge headstock (2 way rod)

- 24 fret curly maple fretboard with wenge bird inlay at 12th fret

- Chrome floyd with R4 nut

- Chrome tuners

- SD Jazz in the neck, SD JB Trembucker in bridge

- 3 way toggle, 500K vol, 500K tone (push/pull for coil tapping)

- Set neck construction

From a design standpoint - it really isn't anything worth getting excited about. I'm still focusing on getting better at the finshing stages. I do have another in the works that should score some creativity points - none here though.

Here are a couple of pics of the body being finished:

I was going to say to have the other thread moved here, but i think this will suffice.

I wanted to see the stain with some clear since they always appear dull without it, I must say that it is very nice! I like dark blue and this even though is lighter it looks great.!

that looks amazing, great job. it looks really deep, almost like water.
