Post Guitars You Built

[LC100]

Lee, that guitar is STUNNING! Wow man, great work!


Here's one that just left the shop:

Saucy looking thing.

Just have to ask - how thick?

 

[BWGuitars]

nice looking guitars indeed, gentlemen.
BWG, is that rosewood on the cap? that is gorgeous, especially with that finish

also love the way you treated the binding/edging profile

Macassar ebony. It's beautiful wood... definitely one of my favorites!

Saucy looking thing.

Just have to ask - how thick?

Thank you! And 1.375" thick. The bevels make it look (and feel) super thin.

i dont think I've ever seen one of Jacks builds that I didnt like.

Once again, not only does Jack impress the world with his build quality, but photography skills as well.

Here are a couple more of mine. Not quite the photographic excellence of Jack, but the images will have to do.

Yeah, I'm on a Tele kick............so what??

True that. Taking good pictures like that it tougher than you would think.

Oh my, damn nice!

mighty fine fiddles, gentlemen. nothing like eating strawberry ice cream and viewing this thread. a handy place for the drool to go, and thus i can do my part in recycling.

 

[nuance97]

well, you are partially right, he did litterally build it, but the infrastructure that made it possible for all his parts to arrive also helped build it. Form the raw materials that arrive at the manufacturers by railways, to the public roads that the UPS truck drives on to bring parts to your house. Oh and lets not forget the internet you are viewing this on.

The infrastructure you speak of would not exist if the money to build them wasn't confiscated from the workers and owners of the privately owned companies that make up our economic system.

Ok I may start a Poll here to have Roman and Jack banned from posting here, so us mere mortals have a chance, hahah

There's an understatement. When I look at Jack's guitars in particular I get a sense of...wow*! The attention to subtle details floors me. That headstock up above is the perfect example. For me it is simply flawless. Not saying there aren't other talented builders showing their excellent work here, but you know a masterpiece when you see one. By the way, that Strat up there of yours is sublime.




*First one of his that really made my jaw drop.

[kasu]

Heres one I did. Borrowed the model name from my favourite fishing rod . Wanted to make a light mahogany bodied melody maker type guitar.

 

[BWGuitars]

Here's another on that I just finished up:

 

[straightblues]

Wow BWGuitars that is an amazing looking 7 string guitar. The fence behind it is also equally amazing.
