I feel like humping it, but I fear in soviet russia sinker redwood hump you.

And I'm surprised at how unbelievably light this thing is. Particularly after working with some cocobolo, rosewood and ebony. Those 2 boards together weight about half of the ebony board I'll use.

CD1221 · 12-27-2010, 02:34 AM

that looks un-farking-believable...

play that thing on stage and people will be undressing themselves at your feet.

so.... what are you doing with it? body shape?

Prydogga · 12-27-2010, 02:56 AM

The grain looks like their is a watermark of a mountain over it! It looks so good!

airpanos · 12-27-2010, 06:25 AM

I am here to witness an upcoming luthier.

That's what I'm going for.

Well, I keep wishing schecter brought back the 00 shape. Fortunately I still have time to decide on almoast everything. I might even make it a bolt-on... who knows.

I had not seen that. I had also not thought of the meshuggah cover. It seems to look like a ton of things. It has an unbelievably evil face on the top, but apparently where I see that evil face my mom sees Jesus

I wont lie, it was a logistics nightmare getting it. You guys can buy pretty much any wood you want and get it in 3 days.

Yeah im happy to see you're goin on with another build

did you already choose the shape?

Not at all, but I thought I'd try the shape I'm going with on the nylon project, just to get an idea of what can be done...

What do you gusy think?

Or how about we turn this thread into "what guitar body shapes would look great with that sinker redwood top?"

I think the guitar should just be a giant rectangle. Then you wouldn't have to trim away any of that glorious wood. Sure it'd be heavy, but totally worth it.

CooleyJr · 04-11-2011, 12:25 AM

PRS shape?

EDIT: More PRS-ish than that shape shown in those pics.

Murdstone · 04-11-2011, 12:36 AM

Do a singlecut with the top horn (even though it won't be a horn) touching around frets 15-17. Bottom horn angled outward like a Schecter Riot.

That could be interesting.

I swear we were separated at birth, Ed. I yelled at my laptop. My girlfriend actually woke up and came out to the living room. "Honey, are you ok? You're not having a flashback, right?" Whilst holding a poolstick...

Badass chunk of wood you got there.

Actually... Flat top, with binding, like the old Warlcok II's! Those looked killer and classy at the same time.

The wood in this orientation prevents it looking like female genetalia

I think I like that orientation a bit better though. It loses a tiny bit of that ridiculous flame, but it gets rid of those voids.

Oh, and I think this time I will go with pickup rings. Well, I guess I need to decide on the body shape...

And as always, I'm still not sure about going neckthrough. There might be enough flamed maple left over for a nice looking neck, which would end up being a bolt-on or maybe set...

more stuff to decide

BlackMastodon · 04-11-2011, 03:14 PM

Iceman/Fireman shape?
