Prostheta Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 Very very cool. It seems larger than the Framus it was loosely designed around. It looks like it should sound fun too, if you see what I mean.....! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Riddler Posted July 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 (edited) Thank you, yeah i think its a little bigger then the framus but thinner. Hard to tell by just looking at pictures of a framus. here is a photo of the headstock so far, got some problems masking this so got some more white to put around the inlay but i think it will look sweet when done. and a picture of one of the sound holes Edited July 2, 2015 by Mr_Riddler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Riddler Posted August 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Allright, got some stuff done frets have been leveled and crowned, just finished with wet sanding and is fresh of the buffer turned out really nice and shiny! Just need to finish the pickup rings and we're soon ready to get this playing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prostheta Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Lots of nice touches; are those Hipshot singles or ABM, etc? White pickup rings are a nice addition. Hopefully the tone and feel is what you were aiming for too; has the spread of tuning and string gauges over the compound scales hit the correct sweet spot of balance between tense/piano-like and loose-bendable?You should GOTM it for this month! http://www.projectguitar.com/forums/topic/48278-guitar-of-the-month-sept-2015/#comment-545210 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Riddler Posted September 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Thank you for the kind words, those are ABM singles, also made a matching set of pickup covers in flamed maple but don't know if i will use them. I haven't really had the time to try it out that much yet. I had to leave for work and im not home until the weekend hopefully i can try it out a little more then. maybe i will try to GOTM this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
