WezV Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 I tried a mockup without the bottom bevel and I like it as well. I may make a mockup without the bevels just to see how it all looks in real material before I do my second one. ......... this is where photoshop comes into play. I have to record a gig tonite but will do a photochop of the HS just to get a visual. fkhinhel let me photoshop one of oursouls guitars till it looks like a les paul did not think you would be the guy to question something a bit different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wanted to see what it would look like without the bevels. I like it- as I stated before. Just think a stream-lined version would look sweeet.

WezV Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 i don't think my Photoshop skills are that good my point is that as someone who revels in a different approach, you should really celebrate new approaches from others Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripthorn Posted January 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 I have no problem with the design being different. I admit that both Avenger and Our Souls have created some stuff that I have looked at and thought "Nope, not my favorite", and I admire both for thinking outside the box. Apparently I was thinking out the other side of the box, but at the end of the day, I spent a lot of time working on this and I quite like it just the way it is. Does that mean I don't want other people's feedback? No. Will I likely try some related stuff? Sure. I will probably go with a streamlined headstock for some kind of SS body shape in the future, but for this body shape, I like how it is. I like how the bevels on the headstock echo the bevels on the body, and how the upper horn, TR cover, and headstock have a familiar theme.

dpm99 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 Ok, well... You probably have no intention of entering this in GotM, but for what it's worth, it would almost certainly have my vote. I can't imagine we'll see anything more significant or memorable anytime soon. Good work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Our Souls inc. Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 show me where i didn't applaud it. I simply stated the HS could look better *to me* . I dig it. Won't be nicking it for myself, but he even got a "bravo" from me, what else do you want? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
