Something A Little Different (For Me, Anyway...)

[Great Ape]

Quilt maple on swamp ash, 2lbs, 13oz.(YES). Scales, feathers, and horns are out the window for this one; just graphic, not National Geographic...Maple neck, white pearl pickguard, and Bare Knuckle 'Irish Tour' pickups to follow...

And, a bit of color...

That is a great idea. What do you use to draw it out and paint it with? Do the colors tend to be durable? You carve on it as well?? Endless possibilities!

Pencil first, then woodburn the design, and color with dyes and enamel paint-markers...spray sanding sealer, and then tung oil or spray poly finish...

Not something I'd wear, but an excellent job nonetheless.

I decided to hold onto the Bareknuckle 'Irish Tour' pickups for a different project, and went with Duncan SSL-Customs--nice surprise, they're very strong but still totally Strat-like; TEXAS BLUES!!

I had missed this one till now. Another very artistic guitar.

There really is a lot of talent on this forum.

As usual, your work is exquisite.  I actually like this more abstract one better than some of the others, but they're all amazing.
