Here are a few photos of my latest aluminum Frypan Steel guitar. It is made from 6061 aircraft grade aluminum alloy, everything polished including the aluminum fret board. Fretboard has brass fretwire installed, and abalone fret marker dots. The pickup is Rick Aiello's L&M pickup, which is quite an amazing and powerful pickup, and has a 3 way switch for 3 sound settings. Genuine Grover Sta-tite gold color open tuners. It is 22.5" scale.
Here's a link to my Facebook photo album page of this guitar, with a few more images than shown here:

That looks SUPER !! A really nice polish on it also.
Nice to see that you did the slotted peg head, which seems more classic to me

Very Nice work.
Of Historical interest did you know that one of the final workshops for John Dopreya was Grants Pass Oregon, the circle is complete as he and Beauchamp were once on talking terms!!! Before Beauchamp & Rickenbacker got into electrickery!!!
