It would definatley remind me of a beetle. Keep up the nice work on the metal guitars.

Nice. Look like a Goth Gibson... Only Not Goth.

looks good... kinda... wait,, ill be straight Looks purplish or a odd tone of wood Body seems tiny, making neck seem short and fat Unicorn Spikes Doesnt really scream Gothik Metal.. Looks more like you took down a beat up maple branch and ran over it then put some blakc electronics on it.... Other than all this!, looks GREAT!

thats a hot looking guitar , the finish glows like those Tigereye stones.... wow.. great finish.. zoo animal on the headstock.. this looks pretty exotic.. lol.. nice!

Lmao!!! your right... i used a metro nome and began to watch them... theyre just about rite... BTW, ive been kinda busy with school.. home work... Computer games.. so i dont have any new pics, but after this weekend i may....

seems ive sparked some interests in the avatars.. well i looked at the mandolins... seems ive been misjudged... to be honest(you might be surprised) the tele is only roughly about a foot and a half tall.... yes... a little under two feet... surprised yet? well get this.. i still want to make pickups and a bridge for this little guitar... now... anyone know where to get the right parts to make pickups the size of my pinky finger?

I never said i didnt like it... but yea, i was thinking about doing somekind of sunburst since i got a pretty good grain... ----- And yes, i love my avatar too... And can you give me a link to a site on what you were talking about... the pickups.. Also, would it be possible to take a piece of rosewood and place it on top of the pine? or would it be best just to cut a solid piece....

Well im glad you like it alG... well i just got done with the shaping and sanding of the neck... heres a detailed shot of the shape and a shot of the neck fitting to the body... http://www.geocities.com/korgerecords/tele_9.jpg http://www.geocities.com/korgerecords/tele_10.jpg anyone know the best way to make mini frets? i was thinking bout using contoured nails or somthing... any better ideas?

wow, is this going to be a veneer flame top, airbrushed with 3 part alchohl based stain with black squares on top with a unique body shape!?! Youre braver then i am... it look nice, but i think u may have your hopes up for that red/yellow fade... I cant wait to see it in action

No i dont, in fact i think its cool that you wanna try... that means im not the only one that likes it... Right now i kinda stoped the tele b/c im buildin a strat for my friend cuz they liked it... well heres the latest images of my tele... I began sanding and shaping the guitar and neck... http://www.geocities.com/korgerecords/tele_6.jpg http://www.geocities.com/korgerecords/tele_7.jpg http://www.geocities.com/korgerecords/tele_8.jpg Btw, anyone got tips to winding my own pickups.. just incase i wanted to make smaller ones to go in the tele? see... if i can, i want this to be playable... hehe

Well, im trully just doing this for fun and to practice with wood.. i know cutting pine is nothing compared to cutting hardwood but i would rather be doing something with wood in the mean time... the nearest Lumber mill is on the othe side of Atlanta and my dad wants to "wait for a good time" . so until i get to go, im just messing around with this pine. I mean, does this mean this progect is stupid? i didnt think so,, i think its cool. I was going to use shaped nails for frets and fishing line for strings. anyways... As for the neck, i did the same thing with the warmoth body to get the shape.. i took the picture, printed it out Perfectly to the same scale, and traced it... http://www.geocities.com/korgerecords/tele_5.jpg ~korge

okie, im not gonna play it... (think before you speak) alG was right, i jsut want some practice, BUT! i want this to be as scale to a real guitar as possible... im gonna try to get some sheet metal and make the bridge and everything.. Get it now? okie well i started cuttin.. now you can see the shape tho http://www.geocities.com/korgerecords/tele_4.jpg

Actually , you do.. unless your going to pull the can out of the pack and stick it in your jacket and walk out the store.. it only comes in packs of 3 for 17.50 in the US..

*** did he say? did he say the N word? im guessing so b/c of "Racial Slur".. what ever Slur is for....

Well before i spend 80 bucks on wood, i decided i would try to do some wood work on some pine. Ive never done real woodwork so i figured the best way would be to make a miniscale guitar.... Im not done but heres pics of whats done so far. First i printed a pic of a body from warmoths site. i cut it out and put it ontop the wood. From there i took a pencil and drew around the edge of the paper to get an out line.. When i removed the paper, i traced the out line to get the body. Now i need to cut it out! I cant wait till its done.. i just need to find out how to make the electronics.. lol http://www.geocities.com/korgerecords/tele_1.JPG http://www.geocities.com/korgerecords/tele_2.JPG http://www.geocities.com/korgerecords/tele_3.JPG (like my pink pencil?) ~korge
