prs man Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 I like the first one it looks like a carvin carve top.I think when the strings go through the body like the first one there is more sustain. I'm not much into the bigsby tail piece thing on the 2nd but if it plays good then I say cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wwwdotcomdotnet Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 how did you put all those strips of wood together so well? did you clamp them side by side all at once or do it in sections? i love that second guitar and its got my mind rolling on a carve top with strips of different wood for the top!

WezV Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 surely the title of this thread should be 'here's two for ya' they look nice but i am never sure about multiwood tops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bentwood999 Posted June 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 the very first one is a hollowbody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmrentis Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Wow really! How thick was the cap, you have a nice carve on that thing. I like the natural color theme with the japanese maple leaf vine, just sweet! J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bentwood999 Posted June 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 it started at 1" the top but that too is hollowed out only weighs about 7 pounds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
