Members brad22386 Posted September 20, 2009 Author Members Share Posted September 20, 2009 Did this ever get finished? I remember I posted here like 3 months ago. Most Custom Shop guitars take 6 to 7 months to be fully built (that goes for any brand), its not uncommon. My Axe is almost done my friend.

Members tekuillahumppa Posted September 20, 2009 Members Share Posted September 20, 2009 And now you been 2 to 3 months behind them Most Custom Shops. 5 months left to make it a year - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members brad22386 Posted September 20, 2009 Author Members Share Posted September 20, 2009 And now you been 2 to 3 months behind them Most Custom Shops. 5 months left to make it a year - I've said it before and I'll say it again. Its only been around 5 months since the actual building process began. Most other Custom Shops out there (like ESP, Jackson, Dean, Ran guitars, etc...) take almost a full year to fully build a single custom guitar from scratch sometimes. (Ran Guitars have in some cases took up to two years to complete a guitar) Shamray doesn't use CNC machines, every guitar is hand crafted from scratch so it takes a little more time to build than a CNC cut guitar. Shamray is actually building my guitar in record time & my Axe is almost done! Which I'm very happy about.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members brad22386 Posted October 2, 2009 Author Members Share Posted October 2, 2009 Thanks guys. This is far from my last Custom Shop Stealth.. My next Custom will be a more original ST. Here is a mockup I made of my future Stealth (below). I am officially going to get this Axe built, but instead of a blank fretboard I'd have orange/red stained flame maple Block inlays that match the top.. I don't know how I am going to afford it but I'll figure it out dammit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members tekuillahumppa Posted October 14, 2009 Members Share Posted October 14, 2009 Make it made, ple-e-a-se.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members brad22386 Posted October 19, 2009 Author Members Share Posted October 19, 2009 Make it made, ple-e-a-se.... I may end up just getting the Washburn ML version replicated instead. Much less chance of chipping the edges that way. I would have it built with an ebony fretboard with block MOP inlays, but instead of the word Dime I'd have the word Fuel in its place instead. With other cool Spec changes aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members brad22386 Posted October 26, 2009 Author Members Share Posted October 26, 2009 The wood grain on the head stock didn't match visually which is one of the many reasons I went with the classic two tone paint job. from the beginning this axe had the the two tone paint job spec. The wood wasn't choosen to be visually semetrical for that reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
