Building one day a week is a challenge. Im finding ways to make it happen though! Here are some projects currently in the works.
-
Master has returned!!! I always wanted to see what that bubinga rhoads turned out like. And it didnt disappoint!
-
incredibly impressive build!
-
Thanks man! I got it all sanded and ready for finish.
-
Thanks scott. The black one was pretty awesome. I still cant help but wonder how good it would have looked under green though. Before the busy season, ive been able to use up some of the wood ive had for years. Knocked these out in a couple of days.
-
Got a few done over the past few weeks. Happy thanksgiving!
-
Ive tried with 3 different cameras. Only 1 is a dslr. I dont remember off hand what lens it has on it. I was never good with DSLRs.
-
Thanks! its been a long time since i did that with a real flame top. Here is a picture after its been buffed. This one is weird. Its actually the most 3d looking grain ive ever created, but yet, i cant capture it in natural light.
-
Thanks guys. Ive had this ss7 for so many months already. I finally spent a day sanding it and getting some finish on it. Green is really hard to photograph.
-
Thanks guys! Here are a few more pics of the details.
-
so i didnt have a day off at all last week. I finally had today off and i got a lot done.
-
Ive been slacking on this project so much. Its in the final stages but still cant get it finished off. Been super busy at work.
-
So this guitar ive had to the finishing stages for over 6 months. It was the last custom order i ever took, and this is the longest any guitar has ever taken me, period. It took so long i had to give it to the buyer for almost half price A shame, it turned out nice. The finish isnt as flawless as it looks in the pic.
-
That one is 1/4" thick.
-
The explorer? That one is veneer. The rest on that page are real tops.
-
Thanks. Im not sure which one you are referring to.
-
So after taking a little over a month off from building, I attempted to work on some things. I picked up right where i left off, if not worse. Every single thing i touched i made a mistake on. I ruined a lot of wood and a few bodies. Hats off to you guys, who can work a full time job and still build quality guitars. I definitely cant do both.
-
Well, I had a good run. The last 3 of 5 guitars (of course the ones that were orders) i have severely messed up on. Ive issued over 1500$ in today. Was worth a shot, but this week destroyed me. Im not the builder i used to be.
-
Its from the burst. I haven't sanded back the bevel yet. For the stain, I actually got it the cleanest I ever have, with zero bleed onto the bevel.
-
Progress has been slow lately. Ive been super busy with work and other things. Today was the first time in a couple weeks ive had time to relax and work on projects. Camera was dead earlier, so no progress pics. But there is this...
-
I finally got a better picture of the bubinga EXP. Also got the spalted SS routed.
-
Thanks man. it turned out well, i would have rather done it a different color though. Ive been pretty busy lately. Ive still been working on a lot of guitar stuff, but i have been working myself to death. I havent given myself a free day in over 2 months. It might be time to take an actual weekend.
-
That is the one that ended up red. I thought i had posted some pics of it.
-
Just a sneak peek. A huge thanks and shoutout to Doug at Parable guitars!
-
Thanks man! Which Tamo ash guitar?
