    Dog vs Guitar

    Sounds like you've pretty much cracked it, but I'd just add this: dogs respond best to rewards for good behaviour, so if he's quiet when you play (even if you have to tell him to shut up), give him a treat; he's done what you asked, so thank him. (Also the ever-present problem with rescue...

    VOTE HERE! November 2018 Guitar of the Month Contest

    Beautiful work on display again this month, and just as hard as ever to make a choice. I really need 2 votes. Make that 3. Or 4. At least.

    VIP build - Dragon's breath glow

    I'd hate to appear stupid, but please could someone explain to me the difference between the 'glow' finish and a burst? Am I missing some subtle but fundamental nuance somewhere?  ???

    Figured redwood tele

    That figure is far too beautiful to cover with a scratchplate, surely? If you've got some cherry burl for a control plate, why not make a mount for the neck pup in the same stuff and keep the redwood on display?

    Video: Full Building of a Goodall Acoustic

    That's a fantastic video. When you see the effort and attention to detail that goes in, suddenly $5000 seems a much smaller price to pay.

    Meanwhile, at Warmoth...win a fully-assembled 7/8 guitar!

    That's the guitar that changed my mind about the holoflake finish, so hell yeah I'm in.  :headbang:

    Mahogany strat progress

    That's really nice looking, I like it a whole lot - I also happen to have a bit of a thing for red strats with tortoise pickguards... It's going to look killer when it's done, you must be chuffed to bits.

    "The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly", performed by the Danish Symphony Orchestra

    Darn it, my money was on the hanging corpse.

    Body shapes suggestion (variations of existing)

    How about a 7-string Z-body? That would be way cool. Also a 6-string version of the current W 7-string. I've seen a few people asking for a 6-string version of the Gecko bass, and a slightly scaled-down version of the 7 would have echoes of that. Coincidentally, I used to be in a band...

    VOTE HERE! June 2018 Guitar of the Month Contest

    Same here. I had to ask myself, if all these guitars were in the room, which is the one I would pick up first?

    Floyd Rose Non-Fine Tuner Recessed rout... want one make it happen...

    Not me I'm afraid, I'm not planning a build anytime soon unless something surprising happens. FWIW, if I was planning a build that's the bridge rout I would want, and I really hope it gets added to the list of options.

    Yeah, he bailed on us after the 'Big Machiavelli' album.
