Emdprodukt's Stinnett guitar

[drew_drummer]

This is making me want a guitar with Monkey Island characters for inlays.

 

[slashvanyoung]

Those inlays look huge!

 

[STINNETT]

They're the same size as shown in the 3D model up there.

Any smaller and cutting them out would really be pissing me off. Haha.

 

[Metaltastic]

How did you cut them out dude? And lookin' great so far!

 

[STINNETT]

Jeweler's saw.


It's like a tiny little coping saw with super thin blades.

 

[J.DavisNJ]

Will, I must say, this is the body shape that I would prefer when I buy one of your guitars.

Do you have any current builds featuring the inline headstock? I'm dying to see one of those!

Fecken sweet!

Awesome, all about the right tools for the job I guess! (though needless to say, even if I had them, I'd probably end up losing at least one extremity )

It would probably take 20 minutes to saw through your finger with a jeweler's saw, so hopefully you'd notice first.

Sorry, man; not yet. Ive got two orders to fill with the inline but it will be a couple months before I get to them.

I want to try to whip out a simple M6 as a demo model pretty soon if I can find the time.

Awesome man, looking forward to it.

God these threads give me gas BAD.

 

[STINNETT]

Possibly black limba (korina) for the body wings?

Gotta get an opinion from Olli first.

 

[slashvanyoung]

Olli, why do you want this to be a neck-trough? With a maple neck and an 81, chances are this will be a really bright guitar. Maybe that's just what you want but I thought you're almost exclusively a rhythm player.

 

[Emdprodukt]

my rythm guitar is really bright sounding too which is not bad if you're playing in drop A#.

You'd be surprised... my Stinnett is actually far brighter than my M-I NTB; Stinnett is mahogany/maple cap (3/4" thick doesn't hurt!) with set maple neck/maple fb, M-I is maple neck thru/ebony fb, alder wings. The Stinnett is brighter, with more clarity and attack, but the M-I is fuller in the low mids and not as snappy.

 

[slashvanyoung]

A dense, high quality maple cap can make quite a difference IME. So does the density of the used maple for the neck. But yeah, there are certainly shades of grey here.

 

[JeffTD]

Yeah, quite true. I just found it super surprising that my ESP sounds solid with an 81 in the bridge despite the bright woods, and the Stinnett needed to be fattened up with the 89 in the bridge because of how bright it ended up being.

 

[Chryst Krispies]

I'd love a Mortal Kombat guitar.

 

[Nebulous]

I'd love a Mortal Kombat guitar.

That would be pretty awesome. Raven thunder inlays for the win. Or even a button which emitts a "get over here" through your amp just for shits and giggles.
