francelj Posted February 25, 2003 Report Share Posted February 25, 2003 check http://www.rotos.si/rm1 Built from scratch (except neck of course ). Now its time for me to focus more on necks. Any comments? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jupiter Posted February 25, 2003 Report Share Posted February 25, 2003 Wow!!! That is beautiful! What stain did you use on the top of the guitar? It's very unique, i like it a lot. How does she play? Great work! Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jehle Posted February 25, 2003 Report Share Posted February 25, 2003 Sweet. I love the finish. Is that a brown stain, or more of a black to grey? Very nice work and I'm impressed. I'm inspired! I can only hope that my next project will be as nice looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted February 25, 2003 Report Share Posted February 25, 2003 Ok now I'm really impressed because I know what you have availble to work with when it come's to woods in southern Europe, are you moonlighting over at the mill these days?

francelj Posted February 25, 2003 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2003 This is same water-based color that i used on previous project. It is actually black, but it looks like gray because it is water based. It is lacquered with high gloss lacquer by friend of mine (in small factory where they builds furniture for kitchens on special order). Playability is great, funny on that guitar is that it is heavy like lespaul, but setup on neck, strings and floyd is more like Jem or Jackson Most on this guitar i like neck humbucker sound. It is deeeeeep (probably because of position (note: 21frets neck) and combination and amount of wood ) Brian: you can get here in Slovenia even Paduak But it is a bit pricey. Example: you can get one piece of paduak wood for about 150$. p.s. sorry for my expression. I'm not good with english language..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest AlexVDL Posted February 26, 2003 Report Share Posted February 26, 2003 Another job great done Borut, I'm very impressed! Geez, I always wanted a PRS guitar with floyd rose... well this one inspires me to build another carved top guitar! Long live the floyd rose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDolphinSpectacle Posted March 1, 2003 Report Share Posted March 1, 2003 That IS very impressive. It also makes me wonder something about laminate tops. Is there a way that laminate tops can be applied so that when contours are carved/shaved/sanded the edges don't completely disappear like near the cutaways on your axe? I never understood how factory-manufactured guitar-makers did that. Again, beautiful job there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
