This never works for me, but I'm going to try anyways.

I would love to have an index of all the sweet basses and guitars on UnOffW.
I know about the flickr pool.
I know about the strat/tele/bass/... sections at the bottom of the homepage.
I know about the galleries on the W website.
I'm proposing something different:

1 or 2 pictures of your COMPLETED build with detailed specs. Each guitar only once. Each guitar it's own post. Simple, effective and beautiful.
No quotes, no comments, nothing to detract from the clean thread that would make an awesome resource for builders looking for inspiration.

Never gonna happen? I'll try.

EDIT: FAIL.
 
Ok, I'll start.
