Warmoth - Pierro Custom White Firebird

Ladies and Gents: here it is!

First off, here was the original Photoshop rendering:

And here is the final Guitar. It's incredibly how similar they look!

Headstock was home-done! Hand painted!

And here was my solution for the strap button!  Had to enlarge the button hole, as well as take down the head of the neck screw, but it worked GREAT.

That's a nice piece of wood!
But wouldn't the strap button placement cause issues after a while? You're adding stress to the neck screw.

There's not really a lot of other options.  Putting it in the traditional spot, you get a tremendous amount of neck dive.  I'm going to keep a careful eye on it, to see how it behaves.

Damn, that thing looks amazing! Im really surprised at how great that headstock looks with that body. What did you do with the soloist that donated its neck? :laughing7:

Duude, I was actually thinking of making a white Firebird, this is just too sick, great build man :headbang:.

 

[Klark]

Nice job Nick !!  Very classy, yet still rockin, and totally functional !!  It's so nice to see a build that's not over the top and gaudy.

You executed the look of your mockup perfectly. :kewlpics:
