ExNihilo Vintage Burst Build
On Monday I hope to begin my most vintage accurate burst build. Over the past year, I have been slowly collecting the materials I want to use for this guitar.

The picture below shows what is going into it:

nwobhm, planks, loveboat and 5 others like this.

Re: ExNihilo Vintage Burst Build
Ex Nihilo, your builds are the only reason I registered on this forum 2 years or so ago.

It's always a great experience to follow one of your guitars from lumber to tone monster.
Thanks for sharing all this with us.

Re: ExNihilo Vintage Burst Build
By the way...I have always wondered. Shouldn't your user name actually be 'Ex Materia'? Am I being too pedantic?

Video Meliora, proboque - Deteriora sequor, after all! I find it unwise to argue with Ovid.
