It really does!  That looks great.  Smashing finish.

 

[simple]

That IS incredible! Great job!

 

[TonyFlyingSquirrel]

I can see that almost paying homage to the Brian May guitars, with some added class.

Great work Willy!!!

 

[Justinginn]

Wow that's really cool! I like it a lot!

The pick guard is just right, in my opinion.

What's the wiring with those two extra switches?

They're 2 position, coil split for each pickup.

Smashing? hehe, are you from walice and grommit?

But a nice guitar!

 

[stubhead]

Smashing? hehe, are you from walice and grommit?

Ummm... Wallace and Gromit are actually from a country called "England". Or they would be, if they actually existed. It's people from England who say stuff like "smashing" and drink tea and eat crumpets all the time - they sponsor Wimbledon tennis too but they can't play themselves. People like Keith Richards, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Boy George are from England.

Are you, by any chance, from "Beavis & Butthead?"  :icon_scratch:

 

[jimh]

I actually had crumpets last night.  Dont knock crumpets.

Marvellous, old chap.

 

[Nando Vallart]

I believe I've not eat it, yeat.... Or if I had was one of those sold in bunches on supermarket (not the nice ones, I suppose)

 

[tfarny]

Oh, stubhead. Too perfect. Your message board sarcasm is matchless. I had a good chuckle at that one.
Remember though that a lot of people on here are pretty young, I think you're supposed to be 13 to visit the site or something. Just a general thought.

I'm late to this one as usual.  Another fine build Stubhead.  The pickguard turned out nicer than expected.  What does the customer think?

The customer thought it was me that built it.  :laughing7:

 

[Nando Vallart]

That V headstock kills me

yeah it probably would if it stabbed you in the chest  :laughing7:

In the chest could be, but if it hit the belly, will jump backwards some miles  :laughing3:

Foot in mouth moment.  My apoplogies.  I can't be the only one that gets some of you guys confused.

 

[stubhead]

Damn! I wasn't worried about the credit, but I was hoping he would pay ME.... :hello2:

 

[Super Turbo Deluxe Custom]

Well, can we agree, regardless of who built it, it's a fine build?

 

[hailstorm350]

excellent look, it's got a completeness to it that I enjoy looking at.

did you cut that headstock yourself? If someone has info on designing headstocks or cutting them yourself, I would appreciate a PM (so as to avoid hijacking the thread)

amazing job "chap"

 

[willyk]

The headstock is a standard Warmoth produced V. We picked it because it suited the concept and the overall lines of the guitar. The Variax and Warmoth shapes were too irregular and pointy for the rounded, almost symmetrical body shape and the LP headstock was too "normal" for the owners taste.
