1St Guitar Build Prs Style.


Recommended Posts

hi,

i have tried my best to deepen the recurve and the outer edge is now deeper and wider than before, its probably not as deep or wide as a prs but i like it and am happy enough with it, so fair enough,

today i finished carving the tuner holes out and had my first play with some dye, i will sand it back and re-apply again to get the contrast to build up even more , but just posting a bit of progress, cant wait to get that neck fretted and glued in mind.

Looks great! Glad to see you didn't do a Gibson and shoot a goldtop over that Maple ;-)

Thanks, no way i was gonna do that, ..i got a gold top already even if it is an epiphone lol ...

Few more progress pics below, tackled the comfort carve and started round the edges over.

(btw the 4 holes in and above the tremolo back route are from where we screwed the template we made when routing out the body on the wrong side of the blank lol,.

....another lesson learnt but at least we got some holes to screw a plaque on the back saying first build guitar 1 ... lol :D )
