Hey guys, this is my second build ever, it is for myself, i dont consider myself a professional, this has quiet a number of flaws (for example i screwed up the position of the 26th fret). Fanned fret inspired the build from the start, my first build (8 string 30 inch scale) inspired the long scale length and the bendability of the thin strings inspired the short scale. The headstock was inspired by Viks Guitars, body was inspired by ESP Forest GT, and the neck join from a couple of guitars ive seen floating around the internet. Build time was 3 months, starting in 2015 November and finished in 2016 January. This guitar has been quiet the debate over a few facebook groups such as "The Electric Guitar Builders Resource", "Music Discussion - Brought to you by GP", and quiet a few others, which i also have been documenting my build over the period of time, which gave me quiet a number of people following the progress.
25 - 30 inch scale
F# Tuning, 9 - 72 gauges
Calibrated Bareknuckle 8 String Juggernauts (slanted them myself)
