Well, my poll was for several reasons. I don't recall yours, so I can't comment on if and why it was shut down.
However, having produced a CD on guitar construction, I was really interested in what other builders would really like to see. I was pretty surprised to see that the Gretsch was so popular on the forum because mostly I see hot rod guitars here. Semi-hollows and guitars of that ilk just are not as popular. Or, so I thought.
So my poll was really a secret ploy to see what would people like to see built and then I could run off and record it, comment on it, all that stuff. Eventually all of that work will go into another CD project. If only I can find the time to do it all.
January is the start of more guitar builds for me, and that recording work. I've got two guitars in the works at the moment. And, one of those is my first consignment build. Actually getting paid to make a guitar for someone with "the works" as they describe it has been a real blast and a real challenge.
