You can say that again! :icon_thumright:

 

[Seamas]

This if gonna be hard. Gonna have to vote last minute.

 

[Rick]

There's some good eye candy here and some nice players and some that are both.  It's like trying to pick a dance partner, do you pick the really good looking one, or do you go for the good dancer, or go for something in the middle.  Life is rough.

[Logrinn]

I don’t know which one to vote on. Such awesome choices. Aaargh, my head hurts ??? :icon_scratch:

This is the second time in a row that the pro finished category had a guitar very similar to the one I have to enter at some point. I'll be voting for that one.

1buzzco Do you have more shots of that ziricote? and Dano are they all Hot Rails in 3 different positions?

 

[1buzzco]

Here's a few..

 

[Dano]

REano are they all Hot Rails in 3 different positions?

Yes they are all Hot Rails.  I am relatively new to single coil pickups having played predominately Les Paul and then PRS type guitars for 50 or so years.  I built a Warmoth Strat before this one with single coils and I found those pickups a little wanting for the punch I was used to... Putting single coil sized Humbuckers with the option to split the coils seemed like a very reasonable solution.  These pickups are very high output and sound similar to my SD Pearly Gates when cranked up.  With the coils split, they are pretty meek by comparison.  I like these a lot.  Best of both worlds!

Stunning guitars!

 

[Dano]

I just got involved in this forum recently, and it is fantastic to see all of the beautiful guitars being built.  A great place to share your creations!  Some real eye candy here!  Thanks to all and best of luck to the entrants!

 

[Tomatonator]

Thanks I'm doing something similar but with Hot, Vintage and Cool rails and phase and neck on switching.
Buzz, thanks - only 1 pic came through but it looks good

Charcoal Frost would have been my #1 if it had a turtleshell pickguard and a roasted maple neck.
