    Thanks I might use it for some project, but not now. We´ll see what is going to come home with me after visiting my supplier. Certainly some nice Sapele and hopefully zebrawood

    Hey all, I found that my wood suplier has some Santos Rosewood and I was thinking of using it as neck wood. What do you think? I believe it is also called Pau Ferro and that is used for fingerboards. Correct me if I´m wrong. Thanks

    Have you tried it yet? Those two PRS are my first carve tops

    Well, now that is one gorgeous paint job! I like it a LOT!

    What do you guys think? Should I make on that singlecut an ebony tailpiece like I wanted, or should I invest more money on it and buy a wrap around bridge? I really don´t know now

    Again I needed some time to gather inspiration... Then I did some progress on this one. Drilling guide holes Rough cut mahogany core with maple back And this is how the back looks now. I think that figure is fine And a quick mockup with neck layed on

    Wow! Very nice build thread. I might use some of your building techniques Great news on that nice flame maple...

    How deep is that neck joint route? I love you builds by the way

    looking great. Are you gonna chamber the top too? I am building something similar to yours, and I will carve the top also from the inside.

    Makes me want to build a thin superstrat with carved top Awesome build as always!

    Beautiful instrument, as always little OT question. Are those black strings good? Friend of mine wants some purple on his guitar.

    Very, very nice guitar! How long does it take you to build one of those?

    that white back made it absolutely different.. and I like it this way

    And after some time there is an update. Finished carving: Neck glued in and testfit: Back stained: And finally color coat on new wood day!! Enjoy

    It could resist bending, but the question is what will happen when it is under the string tension for some time. I would take the risk and leave it trussless and unrouted. Don´t forget to post some photo

    Where did you get your pickup? I did order my KA´s directly from M. Turza

    Well I must say that I´m not familiar with history of Prague, but czech and slovak language are almost the same. Anyway Staropramen means also what I wrote Let´s have some
  21. oblaty
    You´re almost all.. wrong Staropramen means something like old strand, Starobrno is really Old Brno (Brno - city) and Zlatopramen is something like Golden strand Anyway, all of them are great, but my no1 is Branik. Buy some if you can
  22. oblaty
    +1 for that. Do you know Staropramen or Budejovicky Budvar? They´re my favourite
  23. oblaty
    Congrats on your first guitar. It looks fantastic, I can´t believe it´s your first build Really nice one ;-) Wish my third build turned out that good
  24. oblaty
    You ment Firebird right?
  25. oblaty
    I did not finish the carving at all I just tried to do something with it
