that one is pretty cool.

Im dyin to find a good GMC type swirl body, the "busy look" is fine if the black is solid, but its turning gray at certain points from being too thin. maybe try a little bit more/thicker paint? Just throwin that out there. Your flourescent and jupiter swirls are pretty awesome! Just get a GMC like one of those

OR do a black and yellow one, Id probably be down with that lol.

Make me a custom Maxxas body!!

So, are you making square heel bodies? And if so, how much? Site needs set prices for body woods, and options, it's way too vague.

I might want a couple bodies, but I don't like the claw, or handle, and would not want basswood. Basically a JPM body with a square heel in mahogany or ash(with a figured top?)...

I can do square heel. I can leave off the handle. I could leave it for a fixed bridge like this, or do an RG style route. Just shoot me an email and we'll talk details. The concept of the site is that I can make what you want. We should have a revision done today. I'll always focus more on guitars than the site though.

Sent you a message from your site..

One thing about that body style above, I would need the channel for the fretboard extension between the neck pocket and neck humbucker routs, like this body.

Right. The one I posted was set up to take a strat neck. My buddy has an old strat neck for that one. Shoot me a message to work something out. Chris

Cool, just checking.

Hi All!
I realize this is an older thread, but when I was searching around for "Mai Guitar" I just happened to find it. I have three of Chris' swirls, a GMC, Jupiter and a silver/blue/black UV style. I also have a BMC from Herc Fede, and I can honestly say Mai Guitar's swirls are nearly as good....I have to give the edge to Herc, but he is the master after all. Last I heard he was getting out of the swirl business, sad, but I know he gets overwhelmed with it all. That leaves us with everybody else doing these, and Mai Guitar is from what I've seen one of the top guys out there. Easy to work with too, and he can get you anything you need....necks, hardware etc. I know I sound like an ad for him, but I'm always happy to help out somebody who does good work at a reasonable price. I saw a couple of the earlier posts regarding the quality of the work, and all I can say is the swirls I have are very cool. As stated by another poster earlier, the clear coat is the key to getting a good swirl to "pop". Besides that you want an interesting pattern and good color separation, Mai Guitar scores well in both of those catagories IMHO. I would be happy to post up pics of the swirls I have if anybody is interested. Glad to be here, I've been lurking for a while using this site for research into the guitars I'm building, but just now joined up. Hope to get to know everybody

Thanks for the kind words. Once I drop my vendor spot, I think this will be the string that keeps working.

Did you get my email I sent you on friday?

You're welcome Chris. You do some nice work, as soon as I can knock out the GMC I think I may get one of those maple/purpleheart bodies I saw a while back. That's gotta look sweet with a nice clear coat on it!

Yes--and I still have your site linked to my blog, plus I recommend you across several guitar forums.

We've got you covered!

I searched for the right swirl artist and decided on Chis based on the quality of his swirls and colors. He swirls in my opinion were the best. I bought a Jupiter swirl and it is a work of art. He Has been very pleasant and attentive to e-mails. His clear coat is excellent and the quality of the rosewood neck is excellent. After I'm done with this project I probably will start another.

This one turned out pretty good. I'm still doing swirl paint, but have some other stuff going on too.

I worked on a couple natural finish guitars recently. The red one turned out pretty sweet.
