Courtney2018 Swirl


Here's my alder swirl that Courtney2018 has completed for me
recently. It needs clearcoated and assembled, but you get the
idea. She just applied holoflake to the body and I really like the
effect. Enjoy!

Going with cosmo black lo-pro6
Petrucci's old combo pups w/evo single coil - air norton/steve's special.
Headstock will not be matching, but black w/neon green decal.
Here's the neck that's going on the guitar before it was refinished.

Re: Courtney2018 Swirl


+1 on the black headstock. I don't like swirled headstocks. For me they are a bit to much.

Since I'm the only one online I'll raise to the challenge
The pictures are to big for email so I resized them a little.

Re: Courtney2018 Swirl


Damm! Courtney has a good eye for swirling I really like that alot.

Hey Courtney if you rea this great work.

A good swirl has to be edible.
Swirls make me think of ice cream or candy. Or Fruity yogart.

Tony's swirl makes me think of going clubbing blasting The Killers.

That explains all those bite marks on your guitars!
And here I thought you were trying a new style monkey grip
