Lol, you've already mentioned that suggestion. This one's gonna have like faux natural binding (edges of the wood left natural and clear coated ).

And a not-so-great photo of the side of the guitar, with some of the tummy cut visible. The top woods gonna be left unpainted along the edges. I wanna see that african mahogany finished...

I also think it's a bit weird that the shape of the headstock kind of looks like a dragon's face!!!

Really looking forward to seeing this one done

Awesome man, seriously stunning work so far


One thing tho, please tell me those letters in the headstock are coming off...

[shreddersymphony]

Letters on the headstock? Its mother of pearl inlay. Same inlay I get on all my guitars (except on the others its in abalone), it's my nickname. The headstock is gonna be finished in dragonburst too and an abalone inlay would just blend and become invisible, so i went with mother of pearl.

And thanks jono, now that I think about it you're right!

[JaySwear]

[shreddersymphony]

thanks Jay . Should be done in 2 weeks-ish.

Sorry, didnt want to sound rude or anything. Its just i dont think the big font fits the style of the whole thing. To me, it needed a more subtle logo...

Well sir, when you build your own dragonburst custom LP you can create a more subtle headstock logo .

Haha yeah dude, believe me, me too. I need to stop bugging him for progress pics and let him work but i love having a huge folder of pics of the project start to finish. Two weeks maximum till completion though.
