Members Elias Graves Posted June 9, 2010 Members Share Posted June 9, 2010 Wow. Another stunner. That should make somebody's gas diminish for a good long while. EG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Quarter Posted June 10, 2010 Author Members Share Posted June 10, 2010 Thanks Those pics were pretty early in the finishing process. The last of the True Oil has cured out a couple days now, so I'll be starting the trim out today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members noize Posted June 10, 2010 Members Share Posted June 10, 2010 Beautiful. I'm woodworking challenged, how do you cut the slots for the purfling in the fretboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Quarter Posted June 10, 2010 Author Members Share Posted June 10, 2010 Beautiful. I'm woodworking challenged, how do you cut the slots for the purfling in the fretboard? Thanks ... I cut the fret marker slots with a thin kerf blade on a sled I built for my table saw. I set the blade to peek up out of the base about an 1/8" then run the board over it.

Members noize Posted June 10, 2010 Members Share Posted June 10, 2010 As soon as I get her strung up I'll definitely have more pics in all her glory. In the mean time, here is a stock pic of the bridge thats going on it. Its one of the Dusenberg multibenders Thanks ... I cut the fret marker slots with a thin kerf blade on a sled I built for my table saw. I set the blade to peek up out of the base about an 1/8" then run the board over it. Brilliant. Those bridges are very cool. This guy knows what's up. T0mMlc7ELIk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members giantbaba Posted June 10, 2010 Members Share Posted June 10, 2010 Oh man. That is so cool. With that bridge, you can do more pedal steel-like things! I really like that. I didn't even know that existed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Quarter Posted June 11, 2010 Author Members Share Posted June 11, 2010 Thanks all I'm looking forward to putting the bridge through its paces. Its a nicely made unit, and for what they charge it should be. Only place to get them is out of Germany for around $300 shipped. Anyways, I should have her singing today, got most of the hardware mounted yesterday and the shielding done. Only wish I could have more time with her once she completed. Its for a player in Texas that is heading out on tour next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Quarter Posted June 17, 2010 Author Members Share Posted June 17, 2010 Thanks guys I got a call from the customer that commissioned her and he was just blown away. Beyond her being easy on the eyes, he was really digging the BG in there, as usual Bryans winds never disappoint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
