Guys,

Thanks for the kind words and constructive criticisim. Kenny, I used the Stew Mac blue dye mixed with alcohol. I just mixed it a few shades darker than the color I wanted, then I hit it with some 0000 steel wool to expose the grain and repeated as necessary. Xanthus, I tried to follow the shape of the body with the headstock design. I will be changing the inlay for the next build, I'm thinking staying with the celt design but encasing it in a circle to make the inlay easier. I see what your'e saying about the pickup rings, I may just make a set out of walnut and see how that looks. I've got a ton to learn but someday I would love to acually be able to sell a guitar, however, I would need to perfect my work first and that's going to take me quite some time.

Wood pickup rings..... YES! Maybe out of quilt maple, and colour them to match ur body, or chrome would be cool too, any ways I'm just splitting hairs over an awesome guitar.

Ahhhhhhh thnx, I coudn't get my head around it and it has been destroying my life for the past 2 days, I like your Idea a lot. With me, everything is a big difficulty.

Thnx, custom hand crafting, wow you must have some serious skill! btw, AWESOME tele.

That's very tasty, Lots of Aussies on here, good to see!

Don't make me chose, I love both.

WOW! reaaaalllllllllyyyyyyyyyyyyyy cooooooool! I do have a question aout the rhoades: How do you do the beveled edges, I can't find a book to show me and I'm doing an rr very much like that one.

That Kelly is V. nice, how do u bevel the edges on it?

Very sleek and Classy, great design!

Cool! I really like the Black Walnut body. Does it make for good tone?

Wow! what a cool guitar! Looks Great, Do you plan to do another project like that?

Man that Gold strat body is delicious. I might do something like that.....

Okay guys, I need some ideas/help. I need to route a neck pickup cavity (single coil, if your intested) on a guitar, which is a neck thru and already has a fretted finger board on it. Does any one have any good ideas to do this easily? Maybe build some kind of platform?

Thanks.

Hey guys, does any one know what kind of glue you use to stick the wings onto the body core in a neck-thru guitar? Any other tips and tricks for building a neck-thru would be greatly appreciated.
