ezbass Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 I like the 2nd one very much, echos of… well, you know who (nuff said), without being a copy. The 3rd one, with a more extended upper horn would work for me too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2nd one was supposed to be more based on a guitar version of a Corvette than a he who shall not be named but looking at it again it kinda does doesn't it?

T-Bay Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 I like 1 in particular but 2 is cool, not so keen on 3. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankAtari Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 I believe that the 3rd one is the best because if offers access to the neck, very useful if you play down there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the feedback everyone I'm probably going to extend the top horn a bit on #3 like @ezbass commented and I'm going to try and do #1 with a kind of chevron pattern for the top which I'll probably start doing tomorrow, #1 & 3 are probably going to have the Poplar top and #2 I haven't decided yet I might do a plain pallet top darkened down a bit but all of them will be scaffold board backs I've got a telecaster template set coming by the end of the week so hopefully that should make my life a lot easier and I've started making a jig to carve the necks which will more than likely Oak or Sapele with the opposite fretboard or I might do a Poplar fretboatd depending on how soft it feels I'll post pics when I get started.....
