I have a radical idea. The door swings both ways,
we could reverse the particle flow through the gate.
We'll cross the streams.

Congrats bostjan!

That's just one elegant & tasteful & drool-inducing guitar.

You've got a beautiful body style Dan


bostjan you mentioned the jack is recessed, is it in the edge or back of the body?

Here is a close-up (somewhat blurry) of the jack.

And to give some idea of where the jack is relative to the body:

I think I can do a little better photographing the wood with a soft sun light coming through a tanslucent window, but there is just no way to recreate the 3-d texture of the body...

And another picture of the headstock just for good measure


I believe the scale length is 660-710mm (26"-28"). My original intent was to keep this guitar tuned down a to A+D standard, but I've been keping it in B+E standard without any trouble and the tension feels just right. The lower frets aren't hard to stretch to at all. I can reach comfortably from frets 1-5 on the low B, 1-6 is a little stretchy, but no biggie, but I cannot reach from 1-7 on any of the strings.

The fanned frets are great! I've always wanted a guitar with a compound scale length after trying a dingwall bass and being amazed at the clarity of the low B.

Let me say that I have now played every fret on every string of this guitar and there is not one fret buzz anywhere. Not even a hint of a buzz. Anywhere. And I did not even touch the truss rod! On top of that, the intonation is less than 2 cents off. The high E, B, G and D were all dead on right out of the box.
