I've often wondered if H-S-S would be right for me, but I just can't stand the aesthetic. it just doesn't work at all for me

nah, not really.
but which one? take a guess :laughing7: the prettiest!
butttttttt, I wont' buy her, even if I have the money.
I'll be cheating on my 3.5 year love (warmoth), with another lass. There's a luthier in the Netherlands, who's rather cheap, especially in the custom/exotic department, which happens to be my nice=he :laughing11:
what I'm thinking about is the following:
spalt beech top
pearwood back (flamed?)
mary kaye white finish, black dye (but a MODERATE dye!)
ebony/cocobolo neckthru, ebony board
multiply binding on top and back, binding on neck and headstock
custom headstock shape
custom neck profile (1 3/4 nut width, 1.1'' neck, assymetrical)
and the most custom part of all: star trek Starship Enterprise inlay. all enterprises (enterprise, A, B, C, D, E, enterpise NX 01), but also Voyager, Defiant and Deep Space Nine.
for the headstock inlay, I want a collage of all the star trek captains' heads, in pearl. the knobs will be wood, with an inlay on the top (for each a different star trek insignia: starfleet, vulcan, romulan, klingon, or something like that, there are 8 or 9 insignia's in total which I want: starfleet, vulcan, romulan, klingon, borg, dominion, ferengi, cardassian, mirror universe, bajoran).
yeah, I'm a trekkie.
Hah, I have some ideas that would make even the craziest luthier go even more bananas :laughing7:AGWAN said:Orpheo said:ErogenousJones said:Big V - AKA "The other guy from Norway" said:Which one? :icon_scratch:Orpheo said:someone PLEASE buy that les paul body in the showcase.
