    Cheers fellas,

    Bob, I am sensing that anticipation is building for Al

    Ozzie, yep I love a bit of pearl. However it has to be tasteful. That's what I aim for. Speaking of pearl. Got any of your own projects going?

    Alex, it is a great feeling seeing all come together

    Cheers,

    Peter

    Default Very nice job mate

    Your doing an awsome job there, that blackwood looks sweet too. Do you you make them for customers as well or is this a personal thing.

    Can I recommend Seymour Duncan vintage P90's might be a good fit, depending on the style of music the final owner is after - I've got a set in a Queensland Bunya bodied Maton MS500 and it absolutely sings...good tonewood means great sound so why muddy it up with humbuckers? :P

    Hi,

    Some more prrogress pics.

    Andrew. Yep I agree SD P90's would go very nicely, however the customer wants some PB hummies, however these hummies won't be muddy if I have any say in the matter.

    JJH, I must admit, I do browse the AGGH forum from time to time and I agree that there are some exceptional builders there, and Bob is right they come to both forums amoung others.

    A lick of blonde shellac and the first coat of grain filler applied and the guitar is already starting to glissen. Basically just needs a couple more coats of grain filler and some sanding and she is ready for a spray










    Cheers,

    Peter

    Cheers, Bob & Peter. The builders thread alone is worth its weight in gold on AGGH, but I must admit, you blokes here have done some beautiful projects.

    BTW, what name do you go under on AGGH, Bob?

    And are you a member too, Peter, or just browse?

    Kind Regards, jjh.

    Top marks for that one Peter.
    I agree with Bob. That blackwood is amazing.
    And the maple veneer showing through just takes it to the next level

    Who knows your wife might let you buy some.
