joshvegas Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 (edited) I already voted boggs. AndyT got my vote just for the finish. Kenny I liked yours alot and would have voted but n the end I tossed a coin Boggs read above. Low end fuzz. sorry but its far to all over the place but specifically I don't like the tacked on bits on the control cavity cover (if ever there was a case for black plastic!) I have no doubt it plays better than anything I've yet to produce! swedish luthier. same issue as I think wez had about the the shoulder looking slightly odd. but it is very classy KPcrash Ugly?! I think not, thats my kinda bass plain and simple with huge pickups Edited November 26, 2008 by joshvegas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
low end fuzz Posted November 27, 2008 Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 this project was tottally a 'scrap wood specimen' and an exercise in working outside my comfort zone of bass guitars; but it is my style; its a far way from perfection and even further from impressing a wide variety of people on aesthetics, i am mostly proud of the work in progress opose to the final overall project, because it does look like a bad acid trip; but it catapulted me into the mindset that building 'guitars' is kinda fun, but the reward is definatly watching this guy shred cause my fat fingers suck at the twangers! thanx for the positive feedback and constructive critisism; im thinking of a strat project with same pickgaurd idea but toning down the wood selection ;so you have to be real close to see its wood and not a paint job/plastic guard; maybe a walnut body with maple inlay; thanx again ;this was an awsome month for builds; good job kenny; thats a winner for sure!

CrazyManAndy Posted November 27, 2008 Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 (edited) It's funny how our likes change with our mood. Looking at them again, I like the Tele and the Kaye Sol much more than I did when I voted. The Goldy is also growing on me, due to that absolutely sick finish. I think I was in kind of a down mood last time, lol. CMA Edited November 27, 2008 by CrazyManAndy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chops1983 Posted November 30, 2008 Report Share Posted November 30, 2008 Great month again crew! Kenny got my vote this month because when i first saw it i thought " wow now thats a sexy guitar!" Loved everything about it. A few mentions: Low end fuzz: Not a fan of sg's but really liked this guitar. The workmanship looks great and i actually don't mind the bits and pieces look. RDI: Absolutely beautiful! This very nearly got my vote for the workmanship and overall build. Top job and i hope your son will love it one day! kp: I think you were a bit harsh calling your guitar ugly! I really like your build, it kinda makes me want to play some bass. I like the slight burst! Andy: Awesome finish mate! You were( and are) on a winner with that one. Swedish: Another killer build mate. Your finishes and designs are really nice! Thats definately a guitar i would like in my collection. Hydro: Im a massive fan of tele's and your is no different. Loved the old walnut you used in the body and the pearloid pickguard is a great touch. I also really liked your headstock. Don't really like fenders tele headstock apart from a tele custom deluxe with the oversized strat headstock. I have not offered any opinions for changes with any of this months guitars because i liked them all as is! Looking forward to next month! Happy building.

Maiden69 Posted November 30, 2008 Report Share Posted November 30, 2008 I'm curious... How many folks here just can't get a grip on Lindsey Buckingham's Turner Renaissance Model One guitars? For the record, I did not have that guitar in mind at all when I designed mine. The resemblance was pointed out to me well after I had built a few. Did some one brought that up here? I have never seen a Model One in my live so I did a search and I see no resemblance at all with your guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never seen a Model One in my live so I did a search and I see no resemblance at all with your guitar. I have had more than one person tell me it reminded them a lot of the Model One... Mine has more symmetry and of course I do not have the rotating pickup mount but if you put the bottom cutaway that mine has in the Model One, there is a lot of similarity...

Rick500 Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 Hard to pick just one, as usual. A lot of great stuff this month. I voted for Kenny's guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
