CONGRATULATIONS FIDDE: JULY GOM WINNER!

[GOM]

Guitar #1: by Fidde

It's a hollow-bodied Wenge VIP, with Wenge neck and Ebony fretboard.
The finish is nothing more than rough sandpaper and steel-wool, to give it a more beat up, satin and woody look.
Warmoth made the parts. I, Fidde, made the finish.

Congrats, Fidde - nicely done.  Very tasteful appointments.

I mean, it ain't no banjitar, but it's still pretty effin' unique.  :icon_thumright:

Wow.  I bet that thing plows through a nice tube amp.  As if I need to plan the next-next-next project

 

[nexrex]

Wow, truly wenge-licious. Tone should be very balanced with that wood.  :headbang:

[Fidde]

Haha WOW! I was like "OMG that's my guitar in the top corner!!!", when I logged in  :icon_biggrin:

Thanks everyone for the voting and all the kind words!


Ye I should totally put on another neckplate! Will do when I get the time for it!

The pickups are Harmonic Designs VP-90, sounds killer to me  :icon_thumright:


Thanks again, now I can keep working with a smile. Only 6 more hours, 6 done!
Cheers!

That's a beautiful guitar dude!  Such a clean wood look...nicely done.

I love the double f-holes on the VIP, yours only confirms my choice to do the same with mine.

Cheers-
