eddiewarlock Posted July 5, 2008 Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 The specs on the Kelly are: Neck: laminated 3 piece thru body neck made of purpleheart Body: Spanish cedar wings Fretboard, quebracho, 25 1/2", 24 frets, pearloid inlays Bridge: Fixed kahler Pickup: GFS Crunchy Paf ( which is very similar to a SD SH-5) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v313/edd...lock/kelly4.jpg It was very hard to photograho cuz my camera sucks. Haven't wired it yet though now the warlock :twisted: I am really pleased at how this one came out, it looks so much better than the blue camo warlock i own Specs: Neck: thru body neck made of purpleheart/spanish cedar/purpleheart Body: mahogany wings Fretboard: Gaboon ebony, 24 frets, 24 3/4" scale, MOP diamond inlays Bridge: BC Rich Quadmatic Pickup: Seymour Duncan JB SH-4 http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v313/edd...arlockcamo5.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v313/edd...arlockcamo2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v313/edd...arlockcamo3.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hexa-db Posted July 5, 2008 Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 The Warlock reminds me of mid-90s Sepultura (Definitely a good thing in my opinion heh) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ae3 Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 That Kelly is V. nice, how do u bevel the edges on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddiewarlock Posted July 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 I do bevels using a rasp...then sandpaper. If the guitar is a V style that needs bevels ( like a Kelly or a King V) I use a planer sometimes, but i'd say that 99% of the times i use a rasp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WAK Guitars Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 GOTM??? Great Job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddiewarlock Posted July 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 GOTM??? Great Job! Naw, no GOTM, they are both pointy guitars and in solid colors, i would have to build a PRS or a Les Paul to enter the GOTM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avengers63 Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 I'd almost agree with you about GOTM. The more traditionally shaped bodies with natural finishes tend to do better than a camo Warlock would. Personally, I think the multi-color paint jobs would be harder to do than just slapping some lacquer on it. Did you spray the paint yourself?

eddiewarlock Posted July 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Yup i painted them myself. I got tired of taking my guitars to this guy who charges a LOT for painting a guitar, and on the last guitar he painted for me, he did on it what HE whanted not what i wanted, and i had paid him like 500$ so i said screw it and did it myself. He wanted for the camo graphic around 700$... I used DuPont´s Chroma Clear paints, from the primer to the paints and the clear coat itself, it works really good, and can take a very high shine I love it And yes, GOTM...i agree that most people don't like pointy guitars, but in the GOTM...it has to be a very classical looking instrument to win ( unless it's a bass) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zyonsdream Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Well Eddie, you know I love it. Then again, any Max era warlock is a winner in my book. maybe someday we will see a return to BCR for Max because his new sig is just UGLY!

I have a blue camo one and this is a gray camo I don't like the newer models Max have been using like the AX and i didn't like the Viper either...even if his camo one was cool it couldn't top his warlocks.

Bryan316 Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 The camo Warlock really needs to get on a stage, and get PLAYED TO DEATH! That is such a catchy guitar. The Kelly, I don't like. Cuz you stole my favorite idea for a kelly/Explorer shaped guitar! Big pointy guitars with silverbursts are so awesome, so I can't like it out of sheer jealousy.

eddiewarlock Posted July 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 well, i got the idea from Marty Friedman's guitar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddiewarlock Posted July 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2008 My latest finished proyect: I wanted a replica of In Flames´Björn Gelotte Les Paul Custom, minus the pickguard, i hate those things on Les Pauls. So i had the luck that some kid had a really beaten Gallan Les Paul Copy...it had a plywood body and all...yuck...but the top was solid maple, i made a spanish cedar body for it, a neck neck , 3 piece of mahogany, spanish cedar and mahogany, new fretboard, ebony, 22 frets, new inlays, MOP blocks, the only things i used from the guitar were the top and it's multi ply binding and the headstock plate, cuz it had a multi ply binding as well, i had to make the split diamond ( and didn't come out that well...damn curved MOP) and of course, it's got my name on it, Torres, with the Gibson font:) It is almost finished, it doesn't sound yet as i need a gold jack plate and a gold pickup selector...i have both piece but in chrome...
