The Kentocaster (black korina + canary)

[UglyCasanova]

Thank you. My english is not superduper, and I got confused  :icon_thumright:

Time to get that jack plate in place

Little homemade isolation from rubber and tar tape (thank you, stratmania!)

Neck on, E-strings on. Adjusting the pickguard and taping it down

Why did I go for the 11-hole pickguard? So many holes to drill!

Neck back on. All strings on. Adjusting the string height and the intonation

And here she is!

Well done! She's a beauty!

Che bellisima!

 

[stratamania]

Well done, it looks great. How does it play ?

think i figured it out finally. Whoever decides which side of the blank is up is left handed. So in effect he's giving dibs to lefties on body blanks. Explains the prevalance of especially bK guitars where the back is even prettier than the front.

Thank you all!  ccasion14:

It plays really well. I can bend the strings up a full 2 steps without any problems. I will still have to do some small adjustments, but overall it feels amazing. Loving the raw neck! It is also very light. Way lighter than my RS guitarworks tele, which is great news for my back.

swarfrat: I really love the back of the body too, but I do have to say that I personally like the front even more. This will not be my last BK-body, that's for sure!

Today I will be adjusting the pickup height and just have fun with it for a few hours before I start preparing for next weeks exams  :guitaristgif:
