This is going to be my most ambitious material finish yet. I have practiced on a scrap fb.The design will be one piece that will cover the front.



Yes it will be flat.










I am building this guitar for myself.

Edit:

This is the material i will be using. Applied in one piece from headstock to body :9:


Edit2

Needs more frets.

But seriously, a flat fretboard, a pickup that's not black, white, or cream... fantastic! And you can study geography.

Hey thanks man you always have something nice to say thats what i like about you. :9:

my favorite schaller the 3d6. I love the idea of adjusting the spacing hence the name ''3d''. ABM have a similar style bridge.

mate, you've got this.
:beerchug:

You think i am ready for this? haha I just got new glasses too so i ca see again. I am looking foward to getting my 36 fretter up and going.


Also i am looking for headstock name ideas. So if anyone has one let me know

I just got new glasses ordered last night to replace the new ones that I lost on Crete when on vacation back in October. So soon I to will be able to see what the heck it is that I am doing on my build! LOL
 
Re: Project fullMap

wings are on.





I had to take some serious meat out of the bottom horn. But i now actually prefer the new look and it reminds me of the rg550xh. I recessed the bridge and routed for a humbucker.



Next i need to start carving out the heel. :9:
