  1. I would suggest making a full size mock up out or cardboard (including the neck) or something else stiff, just so you can hold it up w/ a strap & sit down w/ it & see if those horns are going to be comfortable, or if they're going to be stabbing you. I know that was one of the problems w/ the B.C. Rich Seagulls. If you're making a mock up, going to make you choose the angle your neck sits at in relation to the body (essentially your body's centerline) & how for into the body your neck sits, which is going to determine your bridge & pickup position. If it were me, those would be my first couple steps.
  2. I think I might have finally gotten used to the idea of that shelf.
  3. I said double bookmatch for a 4 piece top... that would yield 16"x20" more that enough.
  4. It's thick enough that you could double book match it & see how it'd look as a 4 piece top (probably for a solid body so you don't have structural issues), you're going to have to slice it up anyway unless you're going to use it as a carving block.
  5. Hell hath no fury like nitro's scorn. It actually seems to following that black growth ring, which makes me wonder if it's being caused by something absorbed by the tree when it was growing.
  6. Depending on the damage, & how bad the previous repairs are, you may need to scarf on a new headstock. If you're going to do that anyway you could scarf one on with the volute attached. If it's not bad enough to need that type of repair already, then I'd leave it, or fix the old repairs.
  7. What about a horizon / landscape / spacescape design? I've always liked those. You could even toss some space-ships/flying-saucers/aliens in
  8. You could do some Kokopelli designs, I often see those in turquoise.
  9. I'm pleasantly surprised, I was expecting another damn corvis.
  10. That looks great! I'm not in love with the unmatched look of the copper, but on the other hand theremins are f'ing awesome, so maybe it'll grow on me.
  11. Unfigured 4/4 maple is cheap (& what a lot if not most of the classic era Richs are made of (unfigured maple, Mal told me they ordered 10/4 not 4/4)), glue up something like this & you'll have a great guitar (w/o any questions when it comes to stability), & it'll look good enough that you won't even have to paint it black (it'll be a choice, not a necessity): That's just my opinion though
