LGM Guitars Posted April 16, 2003 Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 Yup, started as a Saga strat kit, I'm inlaying the fretboard, I painted it indigo pearl blue, and it's coming along nicely. I still have the tail, and the wing outline to inlay, but it's looking good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KitDean Posted April 16, 2003 Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 That is sweet looking! What paint color is that on the body? Regards, Chris D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted April 16, 2003 Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 Holy Mama! I bet a lot of people with money to spare would buy a neck with one of those on. How long did it take? ( for the inlay ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGM Guitars Posted April 16, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 In answer to questions 1. It's all hand cut and hand routed, the only thing done on computer was I used CAD to design the dragon so I could print lots of fine line copies. 2. The material is mostly synthetic shell (celluloid plastic) except for on the belly where the gold is gold dust in epoxy, the wings will be brass wire, and The pupil of the eye (hard to see in these pics) is chrome. 3. The paint color is called "electron blue" it is an indigo blue, that i added a silver pearl to. 4. So far I have about 50 hours in cutting, fitting, and routing all the pieces, I still have the tail, and wings to go, then I actually have to glue it all LOL!!!!!!

Guest AlexVDL Posted April 16, 2003 Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 If it's ready, please tell us how much a job like that would cost. I'd be interested for sure! Good work bro! Btw, where do you get the acrylic material from? Is it available in most hobby shops or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spyderbell Posted April 16, 2003 Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 that's looking crazy!!! Do those kits sound good? i'm thinking about buying one in a couple of weeks. Where is it that you got yours from if you don't mind? Thanks and great work! Colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EKG Posted April 16, 2003 Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 Jeremy, you are getting to be like Darren. He swirls anything that isn't nailed down and now you are inlaying everything. But, yet again, you amaze me with your talent. That is why I wouldn't go anywhere else to get layed....I mean get an inlay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
