That reminds me....................I saw this and thought, "If Mayfly was a shredder"................

Wow that's an awesome guitar! Also, I had to say this and sound stupid, but should the b-bender be in line with the missing string-through hole? Why does it look like it sits behind the G string?

The bender pull tower on this guitar is actually not a tower - it's a wheel.  because of that, the string wraps around the outside of it and does not pass through the center of it.  For that reason, it's the lower edge of the wheel that should be in line with the b-string.

We'll find out soon enough just how accurate the hole was!

I think that shirt is pretty cool, actually.  I could see Johnny Cash rocking it.  Or Burt Reynolds.

 

[Paul-less]

hey, I couldn't find it anywhere. What brand bender is that?

 

[Jusatele]

If Burt Rocked it, then I would. :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:

I'll admit I had the hat and the Trans Am..... :icon_biggrin:

Here it is:

It's a Parsons/White design (as opposed to the Parsons / Green style ones on my other two bender teles)

If you like country songs with Burt Reynolds references, give Don Williams' "If Hollywood don't need you" a listen...if you haven't already.

life is very good

 

[Cagey]

No doubt! That's gorgeous! I can't wait to see the full build.

So, a couple weeks ago, you got an Axe FX. Last week, you were on TV. This week, you got some phenomenal guitar parts. Next week, you'll have your head cabs. What are you going to do for Christmas? Win the lottery? <grin>

I guess I'm just going to be busy.  BTW - also releasing Cornflower Blue's first album and planning on recording a second.

 

[Cagey]

Busy is right! More like out of control! <grin>

You also have a day job Trevor or is this your main gig? Either way, sounds like a very exciting time for you!  :icon_thumright:

 

[The Norwegian Guy]

Wow, you guys are insane! I love your work, guys!
When your projects hits the museums in 60 years, I'd bring my grand children and tell them "I used to hang around on a discussion board with the guys that made these guitars"
And then my grand children would ask me if I could give them autographs and all that :toothy10:

Just kidding. Anyways - great job guys! That neck looks fabouloumazing! :hello2:

 

[mayfly]

just a mockup. some neck work needs to be done:

BTW - the neck is of course a W neck, but the body and bender is not.  A complete review will come once I have everything together, including comparisons with my Parsons/Green/Warmoth teles.

 

[Jusatele]

that is killer
I am a bit torn though between the clear PG and just no PG at all
IMHO  that's all

 

[The Norwegian Guy]

I think the pg is awesome!
fabouloumazing!
