Beautiful Craftsmanship, looks like that Junior has really got some Mojo...and Blue is my favorite color.

***b-squared*** · 08-07-2008, 07:49 AM

Looks awesome. I'll bet it's a beast.

Lovin' it!

needlespauls · 08-08-2008, 12:16 PM

Oh my god I can't even stand the G.A.S. right now. I'm almost willing to make a very poor un-prioritized decision to get one of these. Sell my car? maybe. Ida know, I've wanted a Jr. for a couple of years now, and these are just amazing. I may be speaking with you soon John.

jkinnison90 · 08-08-2008, 12:43 PM

Lovely!

needlespauls · 08-08-2008, 02:02 PM

John, very very nice speaking with you today. These are just beautiful peices of art. But you know what, when I get mine, I'm gonna play it hard!!! (I'll still take good care of her though).

Will I be the first MLP'er to get one of these beauties??

Likewise, and I hope you do! I want my guitars played not just looked at!

I believe you will!

antei · 08-08-2008, 02:43 PM

Very nice

Tenacious T · 08-08-2008, 04:03 PM

Yep...lovin' this one I am. Superb work!

luthierjr · 08-08-2008, 09:17 PM

Little internal organs pictures.... I like shielding. I don't like humming.

needlespauls · 08-09-2008, 12:19 AM

Good God!!!! I'm working on it, it will be.......mine!!!

Thats NICE brother!!!!

decoy205 · 08-15-2008, 08:54 PM

Very cool. It looks traditional but still has a modern edge to it. Awesome!

luthierjr · 08-15-2008, 11:53 PM

Thanks. I got another one I'll have pics of by the end of the weekend. It's a surf green one. After that next week I'll start getting the traditional looking ones out....

drewbertca · 08-16-2008, 11:15 AM

Beautiful.......looking at the build pics I think it would look cool in a matte clear finish (like the LP Standard Faded) with no pickguard - I like the huge neck joint on that thing.......

luthierjr · 08-17-2008, 12:16 AM

I'm digging the vibe of this one. It roars too. Tons of bark, and power.

dude breath-taking is all I can say...

needlespauls · 08-17-2008, 11:56 AM

Amazing!!!! You're killing me man!!!

drewbertca · 08-17-2008, 12:05 PM

Why do the luthiers always do this to me? Amazing work....

luthierjr · 08-17-2008, 01:26 PM

Thanks fellas. While I'm at it can I convince you all to go over to my site and vote on the poll on the front page? 10 free guitars for every vote!!*

*- pictures of guitars

jomo · 08-17-2008, 01:36 PM

I voted, where's my prize?

I was shocked to see that I voted with the majority. By the way, I'm not big of D/Cs but that guitar is incredible, you did a fantastic job. If I were a "rock star" and I wanted a cool "different" guitar for stage, I would probably rock that. Good job mang!
Edit: hats off to your web designer, I really liked the "page turning" effect on the gallery. Very classy.

captain tightpants · 08-17-2008, 02:08 PM

Very nice! I wouldn't have thought it, but I love the surf green!

luthierjr · 08-23-2008, 08:18 AM

I was going through my stock yesterday when I came across a Standard model that was ready for finish. I must have overlooked it (see what happens when your shop is a mess). So I have one Standard model ready for finish!

You choose the neck profile, right now it's carved like a pre 59' gibson (big and rounded. .950 at the first fret and 1.150 at the 12th) but I can modify it to whatever you like. You choose the finish/color. You choose the hardware. I can have it in finish within a week or so of getting all the specs ironed out.

Here are the standard features along with some options:
