Rick500 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 Very nice! From what I can see, looks like good clean work. Since you're soliciting opinions...I think the headstock's a little large for the guitar, but like I said, overall, very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smasher2000 Posted February 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 yeah, took a bit of a risk with the neck and the headstock, but i just loved the feel of the fingerboard. and its different as well which i like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlazaro317 Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 I like. Kind of a Jem half breed. Did you build the neck too? And how does she play? Details...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maiden69 Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 Like already posted, the headstock don't flow with the body, and it looks like you didn't took into account the length of the bolts on the bridge, since they are longer than the recess you routed.

smasher2000 Posted February 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 yeah, ive not done anything with the intonation yet, just wanted to get her strung up to make sure its not going to fold in half or anything. the trem cavity still will be cutting it fine but those pegs should just fit inside them once ive got round to the intonation adjustments (i hope). But i'm going to leave that for a few weeks as i dont really want to spend hours tuning her up if the tension 's going to snap her in half, thats would just be cruel.

ae3 Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Love the Body, nice colour and finish, top notch! Is there a reason for for the 24th fret being so close to the end of the fretboard? It's not that it looks bad, it's just curiosity on my behalf.
