Holy sh*** :bigeyes:.

Seriously love this, particularly the outline of the bottom horn. How does the tone compare to the fully solid ones? What inspired you to do it this way?

So far, and it is very fresh, it has got lots of balls..

The inspriation came from bending timbers for the acoustic electrics..

Then I got a pencil out, and sort of built it from scratch really..

It's wonderful; I wish I was still in Oz, but then I would've had to order another .

I think you've gone to another level design wise - you've managed to keep what's characteristically yours but made something new at the same time, not as easy to do as it sounds.

Great work, I saw a guitar with a very similar lower horn just the other day.
