ok, some of you asked so here is a brief look at some of my stuff.
Been building guitars for quite a few years now but i am mainly a social sciences teacher - the guitars just keep me sane!!
we will start with the warmoth one
a nice reporduction of Jake E Lee's white charvel modified fender... and i can tell by the thread i started there are a lot of JEL fans around here!
then the other one you have seen because fernando posted it
a fanned fret/multiscale baritone with 26.5-28" scales. made with a maple, wenge, bubinga neck. bubinga wings and a carved wenge top. the pickup is a barekuckle blackdog (that where i know fernando from!!)
i also enjoy the odd vintage themed guitar like this
this is a 55 junior replica built with some vintage parts and some new one. its almost accurate except for the tinner body and laminated neck with a nice strip of wenge down the centre. probably the best sounding guitar i have ever built
here is another vintagey one
its a through neck sg with 25.5" scale and 24 frets - prety much based on a john birch SG rather than a gibson one
the warmoth gecko fans mike like this
black limba with spalted maple top and black burst with ziracote finish and malachite lizard inlay. there is wenge veneer in the body and neck
this ones a korina body with spalted maple top and solid rosewood neck. aged nickel hardware
my basses
i also enjoy fun projects like lapsteels and i am just about to start a mando guitar which will probably be a mine version of the SG above
there are many more but i dont want to bore you. also, apologies if its in the wrong section
