Anyone heard of Guitar Mill?

[Pushpin&Poetry]

I'm going to order un unfinished tele body, and was going to get it from usacg or warmoth. But then I found the site "Guitar Mill". They have over 400 positive feedbacks on ebay and seem to produce quality bodies at a cheaper price. What do you think?

Their website-tele swamp ash-$155

www.guitarmill.com


Ebay auction-this one's not that much cheaper, but looks nice

yep, its from The Lost Boys where he's got a crazy mullet. You should definately check the movie out if you havn't seen it yet.

thread jacking rules:6:. at least this keeps the thread going....i can't imagine that this place is as cheap as it is and nobody from here has tried it yet.

Be sure to let us know how it goes & how it sounds once you've got it built! It'll be good to get some feedback on them from a SD bro.

Wow, this is pretty old thread. Well I did end up buying a 1 pc. swamp ash body from USA, at a really good price I think it was like $130 shipped(I think they've raised their prices now).

I am pretty happy with it, although USACG IMO is the best one of these types of companies. Guitar Mill is legit though, I'm sure they would do a great job finishing a neck, but if you don't mind spending some extra cash, you can't beat USACG.

No offense taken. No this was just my first attempt at a sunburst, and basically my first time ever finishing a guitar.

At first I diden't really like how thick the black was either, although now I kinda like it. Just personal pref I guess.

Although for future purposes, at least I learned from it and feel I could do a thin edge of black now.

that's good for a first try...I think

I think a non-black pg would make it much less noticeable.....gold anodized?

Kinda makes me glad that you say this because, it tells me we have much differn't tastes, and maybe someone else here might actually like my tele.

This may be weird, but black is my favorite color, and I almost always prefer black over anything else guitar wise. To each his own, right?

It's funny though because my cousin and I were talking about how many are very bias(including both of us) about their instruments and think their own guitars are the shizzal, more than others do.

But, it's nice to hear some honesty and makes me wonder if others think my guitar is fugly.
