Superb. Built the right way round, but that headstock...

First, I salute your wood working skills; I barely have the capacity to make shelves.

I don't know whether Steve's comment echoes my feeling when I saw the headstock design for the first time, that it was just a bit, umm, [i]understated[/i]? I don't know...you have a really quite beautiful body built there in a kind of offset EB/SG style, but as I was reading the thread (literally ten minutes ago) in my minds eye, I just got this vision of the headstock being something squarer and offset, like a Reverend/ESP.

Cant see anything wrong with the headstock meself .

Must be lovely to have a chuffing great milling machine in your garage Blablas ;)

Yeah, it must take a fair bit of effort to put that back in the toolbox though!

great work, as ever.

I've been busy for a couple of hours today with sanding the neck and the body, everything is at grain 600 now.


After sanding I glued the neck to the body, tomorrow I need to do some final sanding in a few of places and drill all the necessary holes, then I can start putting on the Danish oil.
