Sneak peak of my 7 string superstrat(sorry 56k)

Elysian · 05-26-2006, 12:13 AM

building this for a friend of mine, it'll be the 4th guitar i've built at roberto-venn, should have it ready for lacquer sometime next week. its going to be neck through... its an inch and a half thick at its thickest point, about an inch and a quarter at the edges... flame maple carved top, ebony fingerboard, mahogony wings, maple neck, tune-o-matic 7 string, x2n-7 bridge and neck pickups, 27 frets. the fretboard is positioned about where it will be when the neck is made and glued to the wings and the top in place, the body intersects the fretboard in the middle of the 26th fret. so on with the pics.

Very nice. I like the bottom end of the neck, right around the 24th fret, how it's cut like that, that looks cool.

Elysian · 05-26-2006, 12:19 AM

you mean 27th fret?

Shawn · 05-26-2006, 12:23 AM

Oh...I see. 27th fret, yes, I can see the top of the neck is cut off from the picture.
