7/8 S guitar is finished

[mrpinter]

My 7/8 guitar is finally completed. Turned out pretty good. The chambered body only weighs 3 lb 5 oz, and the guitar hardly feels like it's there when it's strapped on. It plays very easily, and the Bartolini pickups are smooth and jazzy (almost hi-fi) sounding. And it looks nice. Overall I'm very pleased with how it turned out.

Congratulations it looks very good. I like the idea of a 7/8.

Lovely and simple.  Nice work, Mr. P.  Enjoy!

Very nice.  arty07:

But the purist in me would change those pickup and switch screws to black ones.

Well, you can bet I noticed those un-matching screw heads as well. I think that's just what the tech who built the guitar had available at the time. Easy enough to change.

Pure class, well done sir.

Standard non-locking tuners?

That is one nice looking guitar. Really like the 24 frets with the 7/8.

Thanks Tony. Yep, they're just S38's. I feel safer with those than with locking tuners for my round core nickel strings.
