Osorio Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 Hello folks Lately I've more visited (reading) the forum than post. My day job is killing me days, more and more work. Fortunately I can still get time to relax working on instruments. Well this is one of the projects that I have worked in the last two months. Mahogany body and neck Imbuia top and stripes Rosewood fretboard Schaller hardware EMG 81-60 pickups Hope you enjoy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nandobang Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 That's pretty neat, Osorio. I would have made the stripes on the top also, as you did on the back. Day work takes our whole time. Sometimes I wish days were longer... Btw, nice to see another brazillian around here! - Fernando Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Posted April 6, 2013 Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 Kinda looks like he's going for a Gibson Dusk Tiger look. But with some actual tiger tossed in. I like it. You oughtta see about ordering the Min E-Tune kit from Tronical to make it robotic too Mr. Osorio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osorio Posted April 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 the main idea it's looks like, not to be a robotic one. I find the gibson original hardware on the net but it's too expensive. today I polish and make some very ligth relic on her, pics soon.

HCRoadie Posted April 9, 2013 Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 The pics being in reverse order threw me off at first...but now I get it. I do not understand why the control holes are so damn big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottR Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 I looks to me like he's going to mount the controls on a pick guard and top load them....then wire them up from the back. SR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottR Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 That's mighty fine work Allesander. I'm very impressed with the front view, very creative. I especially like that burst on the bass side upper bout. It is amazing how well that works. I never would have guessed a burst in one localized area only would look that nice.

Osorio Posted June 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 Tks Scott, but the idea it's not mine but gibson's. Just to be fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
