Well there has been a few projects slip through but these are the gats that I've just started.
Bass: NGR top , silver ash pinstripe , and mahogany back , Neck will be Wenge and NGR with silver ash stripes.

Exy-1 Birds eye sheoak top with silver ash pinstripe , NGR back . Neck will be Wenge and aframosia with silver ash stripes.

Exy-2 Birds eye sheoak top with Qld Maple back and one piece Qld Maple neck.

the body is chambered to this pattern .

These are the only pics I have so far I'll try and take a few more as I go . The trouble is I get stuck into it and just keep going and forget to take shots.

Cheers Mark

I had wondered where you went!

That birdseye sheoak top is a ripper.

What you got planned for pickups?

**oz tradie** · 20th June 2009, 10:40 PM

Woo hoo !!!

I had a feeling you were keeping secrets .

Nice sheoak tops too, mate

These for the kiddies or you got a commission or two ?

**Mr K** · 20th June 2009, 10:48 PM

Pickups I have planned ,a set of Adeson Lucifers in one and I'm going to try a set of Adeson Incendiary's in the other . Bass wise I'm going with Nordstrand Fat stacks and active two band pre. And Yes Stu for family use only

Cheers Mark

Ever thought of making Amp Cabs, Mark ?

Ahhh jeez ... that's it Mark, you're banned along with Stu.

This is getting ridiculous!!

I was looking at some birdseye and spalt the other day and I wasn't so sure if it's for me ... but your explorers make me think I should take a closer look.

That Sheoak is sick and i like how you have the grain aligned for the headstock tops. How much did they set you back though.

Well the sheoak was in a friend of mine's possession and it only took a few beers

I think I still owe him a few more
