Tom, you've surpassed yourself. Where's the emoticon for "slobbering with lust"?  |

Nice work Tom. The control plate and palm rest are very nice touches. What pickup is going in this beauty?

I typically lurk in the background on the SGF but your designs and craftsmanship are something that I always enjoy! Stunning stuff
Thanks for posting your work!

Thanks all, as I've said before, its a great creative outlet for me.
I'll never be more than a woodshed'r, so my guitars will be my contribution to music.

I thought of one, and may end up using one, but I've got an Idea for a jack that might be cool.

Posted 22 Nov 2008 4:58 am Have you ever made a 10 or 12 string laptop or multineck?

Well, my subject pretty much asks the question.
Looking for your reply!

Hi Bill ... I have not done a 10 or 12 yet, but have been working on some preliminary drawings of an upscaled 10 string teardrop.
By doing a 6 x 4 tuner arrangement, I was able to keep the headstock a reasonable size and retain the tilt back strait pull with 3/8" spacing
.
