well, its not finished yet but it may turn out nice!
it's my first complete build. i did a body prevoiusly and bought the neck,
turned out OK but it was far from being anything special.
this one also has it's flaws but hey, the learning process is incredible,
i think my next build will be even better!
my uncle is also helping me a lot, he's a carpenter,
he has the tools and he knows how to work with wood.
he's also doing all the routing as the router freaks the shit out of me,
i always imagine the bit (30000rpm) breaking off and ripping my guts out!
specs:
-one piece walnut body
-one piece maple neck
-CNC-cut ziricote fretboard (670mm scale)
-hipshot hardware
-duncan invader
-tru oil finish (not yet applied)
design:
-slightly modified ESP style headstock
-body design (funny story)
i delineated my mayones regius 6 to have a raw form and then i did the rest by hand.
the final shape came while sanding. the funny thing is, it looks really similar to the new
ESP horizon III series, guess that's the "revenge" because i ripped off their headstock design
