Boo-tiful Tom,I like that dark amber finish an awful lot. I think we may have similar tastes in guitars(p90's,wood grain,etc.) :thumb:

as a luthier this is the sort of thing i love to see, og designs and executed perfectly!
is that figured mohog, or a maple veneer on the headstock? and this is the only time i have ever thought, "wow, that would look nice as a 3x3 style as well"

Thanks!! :) If I could build them more efficiently I'd go into business. But it was wayy hands-on (hand-tools, no CNC for the body shape, etc).

It's a mahog veneer that (by a happy accident) happened to be figured. :) It's a two-piece neck, so the veneer is there for looks.

i do everything by hand, and as long as everything is setup to just do one style of guitar i can knock one out in a month easy, granted that means 8-10 hours a day 6 days a week. i was able to build a carved 335 copy in 2 months, but that was a small bit of hell in the workshop.
