At 24" it must be a snort to play. Is that a Warmoth body with the transparent turquoise top finish?

The neck is a special order from Warmoth, but I made the body from scratch. I used powdered dye for the top with a 3:1 mix of blue:green

I'm personally not a fan of the short scale. When I recreate this guitar for myself, I'm using the regular 25.5" scale, mahogany/maple with a set neck or neck-thru, and a non-fender headstock.

Cool. I look forward to seeing and hearing that one. Again, nice work.

So, you built this one for someone else. Extremely nice!!

Now it's time to get to work on your own.

Oh one more thing...

Did you mix the dye with water or mineral spirits?

I did for a friend of mine who deployed to Afghanistan with me. He just paid for parts and materials.

Nice chops.

It doesn't have a single bad sound in it!
