[milobender]

Yeah, I will when it's finished...
I didn't do any work on it over the holidays... we had guests until a couple of days ago.
I posted it early in case anyone wanted it but wanted something special done with the hardware or electronics... anyway, I started on the pickguard/pup mount yesterday and I should have it done in a week, or two, depending on what else I have to do. I'll post completed pics asap...

[milobender]

Ok, sorry for the delay... it got prioritized down the list for a few weeks, for other work
Anyway, it's finished, works great, 100% gauranteed with a 7 day return policy.
Here's some photos, and I'm happy to provide any more or answer any questions...

Very nice, sure is pretty, just wondering how heavy it is.
I just love the flame maple.

[milobender]

It's not too bad... 8.6 pounds.

FWIW the reason this guitar is priced as low as it is, is because it's not got any inlay, or fancy stuff (it's a working/player's guitar), and, I used a neck I had laying around, as well as the bridge and the tuners (I forgot to mention it has TonePros locking studs with the bridge)... to be honest, the neck is the weakest part of the guitar... it's not great, functional, but not great. That is the ONLY weak place with this ax, the body is flawless, and everything else is top-notch...

I haven't had any real interest yet, and actually, if it was me, I'd want the neck of my choice on a guitar like this. I've just looked at Warmoth's site and they have some lovely basic, compound radius necks, with the fret wire and profile of your choice... (or any standard Fender dimensioned neck is a possibility) If you'd prefer different tuners that can also be arranged.

I dig it. I like the use of elk antler. I use antler for nuts and dots as well. Sounds great. I generally find enough an'er in the spring to keep me in nuts and dots for the year.

Bump for a beautiful axe I wish I could buy.
