im in the same boat as a lot of people this month; it seemed like i liked everything for one reason or another, so i couldnt vote based on things i liked, basically i had to tally up things i didnt like, to eventually get at a pick;
chef- love the woods; everything on that guitar seems to have figure; im sure in person its like a 3D movie; but i found the horns too 'oblong' or disporportioned for me; originally a front runner
metalhead- all around clean crisp look, great colour and great wood selection; probly would of voted for it if i didnt watch the whole build, cause it was less suprising to see the finished project watchig every step so frequently; sorry
not you- i like this kind of stuff; like the orgmorg style; but not something i could vote for, but something i would have a great time playing
Strandberg- i just hate the ergo style of guitars; so ya, sorry. but it is a great treat to see one in natural wood as opose to a vibrant paint job/gloss black; so kudos on the great work; i was wondering how long it was gonna be before i seen someone use those lace pickups; gonna go listen to those sound clips now.
hitone-i like wood.... maybe some sound clips would have swayed my opinion but its too 23rd Century for me.
Avenger63- once again John you have made a work of pure 'art n soul'; not a huge mirror top fan, but damn that thing looks as professionally done as anything ive seen; unfortunatly the neck join had it bumped from the top spot; so; strictly a 'style' conflict as opose to any 'human error'
maddhattr- liked this, looks very organic and comfortable ,reminds me of an old bigsby guitar i seen, merle travis i think?
but it was preety stiff competition; nothing really critical i could say
RestorationAD- i like this one aswell; it was clicked as a vote but changed at the last moment; kept tellin myself how nice it would of looked wih gold hardware, and something happening on the fretboard; at this point of the decision im getting reeeaaally picky, to try to make up my mind
pauliemc-not for me; i thought i might vote for it when i first saw it, cuz it looked like the back was gold! apparently its black but i still dont see it!
oursouls- if we had a 'Spirit of the month' compitition you'd be on it like gavy on rice; i love the story and the 'green-ness' of a recycled material; and the carving would be as interesting if you did it yourself; i just like stuff like that even if theres an essence of cheese involved, good work, n keep em comin
crow- got my vote this month; and that really suprises me; curly maple topped prs copy; probablythe next most boring thing to me to an ash tele.
but when it came down to it; the carve was flawless; the colour really made the curls interesting; like a sunset burst (?) new coined phrase?)) it looked great with the chrome, but im glad you chose a wraparound bridge to limit the amount of metal on the face; i like the inlays, nice twist on a 'common' inlay theme; and i love the headstock with the walnut and the crow accompining the engraving , it reminds me a cover on some crazy novel;
would of liked to have seen at least one back shot, but it seemed not to effect as much as it should. good luck!
