Crossley Refigerator White

Hi Guys,
Just finished setting this one up.
I wanted to build a guitar that took elements of the P and H series, and combine them, having a hollow carvetop.
Its nice and light = resonant and I thought I would do it in "Refrigerator White" as a strange homage to Nick Lowe who is touring soon with Ry Cooder.
Fretboard is my fave fretboard timber Cooktown Ironwood, inlay is "The Three Horns of Odin" :wtf
anyways.....

enough banter.

Re: Crossley Refigerator White

I have that inlay in a pendant only I was told it was the symbol of chaos or sth...
Man, your ability and artistic capabilities never cease to amaze me.

If I ever was gonna get a custom-made guitar (and for some odd reason didn't want it to be a superstrat) there wouldn't be any other person in the world I'd think about building it.
You are as much an amazing luthier as you are an artist!
 
Re: Crossley Refigerator White

I'm relatively new here and this is the first I've seen of your work.



Stunningly good. I'd love to try that one out.

What is it like to be you? You know, a guitar building GOD and what not. Please tell me you are really homely and are still a virgin, and you have channelled all of your excess energy into creating these works of art...

OK Ace.
I'm REALLY homely and what is this sex of which you speak ????:cool2:
 
Re: Crossley Refigerator White

In the words of David Coverdale (though he wasn't singing about a guitar)...

Is this love that I'm feeling
Is this the love that I've been searching for
Is this love or am I dreaming
This must be love
Cos it's really go a hold on me
A hold on me

The fancy tops are great, but **** does that body shape hold solid color awesomely! I love it, Pete! The grain patterns on the ironwood board are very sick, too. Very tight with some swirl and just the right amount of variegated pattern.
 
Re: Crossley Refigerator White

I will have you build me a guitar one day. And it will be amazing - but then again everything you do is...

You did the chic in your avatar, didn't you? I hate you.

what pups are in there?
 
Re: Crossley Refigerator White

That is a stylin guitar. Even the screws of the truss rod cover look like they are placed logically.

edit - I just checked out your website. Some amazing stuff, man.

Dude, PLEASE stop posting these when I have no money!

Unless ...

Do you need a healthy kidney by any chance?

YES, and she was really amazing, she also said to say Hi.

puppies are

neck SH6
Bridge SH4

with treble bleed and "real" tone control (Petey's special Lectronics..........)
 
Re: Crossley Refigerator White

Sickeningly good again :cool2:. I think your semis are becoming my faves. Great finish!

If money were no object: semi, smokeburst finish, 2hb (or P90 in the neck and hb in the bridge) with fancy switcheroo of some kind, Schaller Batmobile bridge. Luckily dreaming don't cost a cent :friday:.
 
Re: Crossley Refigerator White

I think a P-Rails in the neck would be the bee's knees for a Crossley - with the fancy switcheroo.
 
Re: Crossley Refigerator White

sick nasty broseidon. I like it


you did something similiar to his a while ago with a pink paisley pickguard maybe?
 
Re: Crossley Refigerator White

I think a P-Rails in the neck would be the bee's knees for a Crossley - with the fancy switcheroo.

Even better :eyecrazy:. I like the way you think; with a triple shot ring perhaps.

But, I like that gold top with the P90s that Pete flaunted to us gas ridden wretches a while back, that's what got me thinking.
 
Re: Crossley Refigerator White

Goddnammnit..Peter lives only a 30 min drive from me, I really need to save up and get something beautiful like this crafted for me!
