    I don't know Jaycee the guy turns out some amazing work he's hardly an amateur .Besides all good builders have to improvise at some point.

    Trying to find the right piece for the head veneer this nearly drove me mad . Ok veneer glued on and fret board started . Shaping the head. So far so good.Oh yea big thanks to Rad for the neck idea I can't go back to conventional neck building again.

    My weapon of choice for shaping. Rough cut on the scarf joint.

    Body - yew back , 10mm beech then a 2mm mahogany veneer and topped off with a carved elm burl top with matching headstock. A yew fretboard with mother-of-pearl inlays. Gotoh tuners, an Edge Pro 2 bridge, Seymour Duncan pick-ups, single volume, a 3-way toggle and 1 DPDT switches for each pick-up. First off the body shape couldn't make up my mind what body type to go with PRS,RG,Baretta or my own so I mixed them all up .

    Name- Rebellion . This is a memorial guitar of the 1798 rebellion in Ireland . The body is ash no grain filler just stain and laquer I kind of like the feel of the wide-open grain. She has a three piece neck maple and mahogany a buffalo horn nut and hand cut mop inlays in a ebony fret board the 12 fret inlay is a pike( the weapon of choice back then ) . The hardware is Gotoh ,Seymour Duncan pickups with a push pull volume pot ( with a tone knob its a Van Halen thing don't ask ) for different pickups options . The writing on the back of the neck ( Wexford ) is the place where the 1798 rebellion took place ,and is also where I got the name Menapia from that’s the Latin name for Wexford ( My home town ) Anyway enough with the history lesson . …
