You should have set a cloth on the wood first. You scratched it.

Very cool, great looking guitars.

Re: post guitars you built
I haven't build it at all, it's my friends work and I've been with him in the shop (It's his first guitarbuild).
I was the one who conceived it though and made the 3d renderings this is based on.
Some specs for those who care:

• Ash body, maple neck
• satin chrome Schaller hardware, Wilkinson Tremolo
• Tesla Plasma 2 pickups (splittable - Megaswitch)
• Danish Oil finish all over the guitar.
