jessejames Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 Here are all the other ones that I have going on. Building a telecaster for a crippled guy, it will be the last build I do of other peoples designs (Hopefully) My JAT model, faded blue jean finish. Ziricote neck, east indian rosewood neck, luminlay dots throughout neck in the shape of a constellation. Blue dots are on the 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, etc.... Ribbon sapele body. Quilt maple top.

ScottR Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 You've got some cool things going on in there.... SR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedishLuthier Posted May 2, 2015 Report Share Posted May 2, 2015 I think you got the position makes in slight off center... Nice ideas. The JAT looks much better from the front compared to from the back for some reason (IMHO). Can't put my finger on why. Possibly the curves of the top carve makes everything flow better. However that is a minor problem as there will most of the time be a guitars blocking the back view! I like what I see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessejames Posted July 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Finally the house build for me is finished! It's taken me FOREVER, but man this thing sounds SWEEEEEEEEET. It has absolutely insane sustain, just rings forever. Rings like a bell. Sounds great on distorted and clean channels. Holds tune perfectly. Here are the specs: Top - Flame/Curly Maple Body - Curly Black Limba with Custom Chambering Neck - Pernambuco Fretboard - Brazilian Rosewood with Patented Heartbeat Inlay in Abalone Side Dots: Luminlay (Green Double Dots On The 12th Fret, Blue On All The Others) Bridge - Hipshot Tuners - Hipshot Locking Nut - Graphite Trussrod - 2 way Pickups - Hand Wound by JE Guitars - 16.67k in bridge - 8.97 in the neck Control Covers - Flame Maple (Held On With Neodynium Magnets!) (Forgive the knobs, got a matching set on the way, just had to use these in the meantime, they're gonna be like the lone wood knob on there) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottR Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 That is some cool figure you've got there. Some aspects of it are fairly unique. Are you shooting for a faded blue jeans look with the color? SR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessejames Posted August 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 Thank you. No, no faded blue jean look. I know how to do that one. The customer wanted a unique color in a blue or turquoise, so I came up with this. Also decided since I scraped the faux binding on the top I would do it to the cavity covers as well, just not sure how I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
