  15. Cherry Guitar

    in In Progress and Finished Work

    Posted

    That piece of cherry is beautiful, if it wasnt for the little dark patch on the waist I would say it was perfect! And with the subtle "cherry burst" (not sunburst as there is no brown... or at least non discernible from those pics) looks great.

    does not seem to live in the darker spots, which makes reference

    Quite distinct from the colors nicely. Unfortunately, the veins of the tree can not be influenced

    Did you take into consideration what the cherry will look like once it darkens when you picked out the color of the burst? I'm 99% postitive it's not going to be that deep of a contrast later on.

    We'll see what will be later, but blew a lot of layers of varnish, for it does not change the color later.

    Cherry has not worked so it was a good test

    Hitone: I like the apparent simplicity of it. I'm not a big fan of the dice knobs, so I'm glad they got replaced. I also like that you can still see the grain through the black dye. It makes the piece look aged. The only thing I might change is using normal P90s instead of the HB sized.

    Crow: I REALLY like the LP/Tele hybrid. If you had not made the recesses around the knobs it would be almost perfect. Perfect would have added block or trap inlays in the fretboard.

    HuntinDog: Really cool. It's easy for a gimmick guitar to either go overboard or become a piece of advertising. You managed to keep it a playable instrument. Good job!

    Menipia: One of the most artistic fretboard usages I've seen. Unfortunately, I think the headstock doesn't go with the overall look, and I really don't like the scarf accents going through the volute.

    RAD: I'm not so much for this one. I think it's the Ambrosia Maple. For my eye, it just doesn't seem to go just right. It's probably because I don't usually care for back lams, and I definitely don't like carves that go through like it does on the back. On a closer look, I'm wondering why the neck is set so far into the body. It pushes the bridge really far back and throws off the Tele look we're used to.

    thanks for the review. This custom made guitar, and all have made their way to the customer's request. all the other inlay like. was a sign of the infinite desire of the customer
