Members _pete_ Posted April 27, 2007 Members Share Posted April 27, 2007 Update: Body's here, and I found the camera, so pics are forthcoming both of the body and pete n.'s exceptional wiring harness work Stay tuned... BTW, the flame on this body is outrageous. even unfinished it's really, really deep and prominent. Kudos to Warmoth for providing the project with such a lovely piece of wood. Cool! I'm anxious to see this baby come together.Shame I won't get to play it! (hint, hint ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members warriorpoet Posted April 28, 2007 Author Members Share Posted April 28, 2007 Sorry about the crap pictures, but my camera is not cooperating. Maybe tomorrow when I have better light... t3h secks (body + pg) pete n.'s remarkably clean soldering and fastidious labeling FWIW, these are simply color-corrected. No other tweaking has been done and the wood is "dry". It actually looks flamier in person with, as of yet, no finish AJ's going to have fun with this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members warriorpoet Posted April 28, 2007 Author Members Share Posted April 28, 2007 For the contributers: I'm considering sending the completed product on a circuit back through you as a sort of thank you.

If you have the patience (which i know will be hard), I think it would be great if everyone involved had a chance to jam on it and record it somehow. I had already plannned on recording a vid.

I had already plannned on recording a vid.Well, if you are going to do a vid, it might be cool to record a little piece of all the different steps of the fret dress, polish, and set-up that you do, and then a vid of you playing it.

Moderators Ratae Corieltauvorum Posted April 28, 2007 Moderators Share Posted April 28, 2007 Why not?Sending a whole guitar across the Atlantic is gonna cost you about 250 dollars return. That guitars gonna set you back mucho rubles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members asdfjkl semi Posted April 28, 2007 Members Share Posted April 28, 2007 WP, was that a custom body or was it out of their showcase? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members warriorpoet Posted April 28, 2007 Author Members Share Posted April 28, 2007 WP, was that a custom body or was it out of their showcase? Custom. There are few very intriguing examples in their showcase, though. The nice thing about the standard tele route in their showcase is that they can route it out to anything you want, up to and including Fender's Wide Range monsterbucker.
