Members headless Posted April 10, 2009 Members Share Posted April 10, 2009 Not a big "pointy-guitar" fan, but I really like that blend of Iceman/Mockingbird/Explorer. Do you have a link to the builder? I'd like to see what else he's come-up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Special J Posted April 10, 2009 Members Share Posted April 10, 2009 Here's my Hamer Special. It was a custom build for somebody... And my Neafsey Custom. This was a one-off build that he did as a prototype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members panther_king Posted April 10, 2009 Members Share Posted April 10, 2009 Not hand made by any means, but custom ordered yes; ESP Horizon; Swamp Ash body, Flame maple neck with a nicely grained rosewood board. Graphite nut, Gotoh Hardware, etc. I've since put a zebra '59/JB combo in since that pic (actually what it came with), but I'm thinking about putting the FRED back in the neck. I like something a little warmer in the neck position for cleans/leads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Norcal_GIT_r Posted April 10, 2009 Members Share Posted April 10, 2009 The neck looks like Brazilian Rosewood, but what is the main body wood? That guitar would be perfect, if it just had matching wood control-cavity cover. Yeah, I know the difficulties involved in such a thing, but they just look so great. The body is black limba with a maple top and the neck is Indian rosewood. Jason made this one just the way I asked him too. You can checkout all the guitars he's got going at http://www.schroederguitars.com/forums/index.php Here's a photo of Jason carving my top.

But it's great to see that someone is still crafting guitars in manner of the Old World craftsmen. Does he hand-carve the neck-heel/body dovetail also?

I'd like to see what else he's come-up with. Not a builder but a designer, they are built in the USA by a ghost builder. Look at www.carlinoguitars.com. His designs are called the Identity and the Impulse. In the Identity section I also own the Korina Identity below my green one.

Members Philphine Posted April 10, 2009 Members Share Posted April 10, 2009 i guess this one, pic's not too sharp. what i was told is the compamy that makes the aluminum bodies for fender took some extras to one of the guitar shows where they got brought up. the shop i got it from had two. and maybe this one i may get the spelling wrong 'cause i'm not at home to look at it. a carriview(sp?) eloustic. i only have it 'cause i saw a review for it in guitar player way back when i first started fooling with guitars, and then a couple years later saw this one in a pawn shop for fairly cheap. truthfully, i think i just liked that it had been reviewed in the magazine and i could afford it.

Members Norcal_GIT_r Posted April 10, 2009 Members Share Posted April 10, 2009 Does he hand-carve the neck-heel/body dovetail also? Yes, most everything is done by hand with hand tools and power tools but no CNCs. Each guitar is quite unique.Most are custom for each buyer. Lots of great guitars posted here. Keep them coming I'm digging them all.:thu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Verne Andru Posted April 10, 2009 Members Share Posted April 10, 2009 Wait, this is not a Danelectro? Kinda. It's a NOS Coral [a Danelectro subsidiary back in the '60's] Longhorn archtop body with a neck from my 90's reissue Dano double-neck. The bridge, tailpiece and fingerrest are custom. The pickups include a Kent Armstrong floating humbucker and piezos attached to a Fishman Powerjack [preamp built into an endpin jack]. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
