I've been a major fan of Star Trek for oh, close to twenty years. I'm the guy you always make fun of: I've got the encyclopedia (first, second and third edition: fourth on its way), I've seen all episodes several times, I can recite scripts ets. But I grew up with 'Trek' and to me, it's a fairly important deal. So, when 2016 reared its ugly head I thought: now is the 50th anniversary of star trek, why not make two guitars to commemorate those years?
And that's just what I did. One guitar is my singlecut design, the other is my double cutaway design. I've chosen a triple-lam construction for both bodies: one ToneCore, sandwiched with great woods. I laminated the necks out of exotic timbers too. Got the best hardware, best pickups I could find, etc.
To summarize: these are the best guitars I made. By far. The action is super-low, the playability is buttery-smooth and the tones are to die for. Here are a few pics. Hope you enjoy them
