The 007 build

Roman · 11-22-2010, 05:39 PM

I had some nice Tort laying around that I turned into parts for #007.

We'll see what turns out with this.

PINKBITS · 11-22-2010, 05:44 PM

I'm sure it will be sub standard like all your others

Mowgli5555 · 11-22-2010, 06:09 PM

Buckle Up !!!!!

By 007, I thought you were building a guitar filled with all sorts of gadgets, like for a spy

purevilpleasure · 11-22-2010, 07:01 PM

I diggin it Roman.

TKOjams · 11-22-2010, 07:11 PM

SlashAppetite · 11-22-2010, 07:14 PM

This will be good.

decoy205 · 11-22-2010, 10:38 PM

Hey, if they can put machine guns in Britney Spear's boobies, then just think what Roman can fit his guitars with..

That depends on who your favourite Bond was. Brosnan's would be filled with bad puns and one liners.

delander · 11-23-2010, 02:06 PM

Now that will be one very, very special Workhorse I'm thinking !!

longan · 11-24-2010, 01:08 PM

Put a pistol in the headstock and laser sighting on the strap lock!!

Ace1432 · 11-26-2010, 10:09 AM

kinda reminds me of the man with the golden gun.

straightblues · 11-27-2010, 02:53 PM

Let's see you tease!!!

Thanks Roman, that Korina does look sweet. Looking forward to seeing some more pictures as 007 progresses. Can't wait to hear the sound differences of the Korina.

Oooh! I got it! It's going to be the George Lazenby signature series!

Akahito · 11-28-2010, 12:33 PM

I think it's gonna be the less-wordy but straight-down-to-business Daniel Craig version.

Not as dark as the original, but plays hard like the real thing should.

180gROC · 11-28-2010, 12:39 PM

Ha! I got quoted in a sig.

Go figure...

Funny too seeing the body pic upthread I was just flashing back to sanding down to the pencil line. I need to get my ass back up to Shasta.

There you go. This 007 don't need no fancy gadgets.

Body routed and rough carved

decoy205 · 11-28-2010, 08:36 PM

wow looking great Roman!!
Correction: limbawesome!

Roman · 11-29-2010, 02:16 AM

This one is actually limba, it does look a bit "spruced up" in that pic.

Here is the neck roughed out with headstock wings

Fingerboard is glued on and fretted. This one gets no dots.

Random shop cat photo...........This is my Amp Gargoyle. No one is getting near my vintage Silvertone.............No one.

Akahito · 11-29-2010, 03:45 AM

Looks delicious! The grain on the belly cut area looks especially great.

PoorMan · 11-29-2010, 12:07 PM

Purdy.

hackenfort · 11-29-2010, 05:30 PM

Great looking Rosewood!

Grasshopper · 11-29-2010, 05:35 PM

Great looking all around! Can't wait for more.
