james90 Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 looks great, I really like that burst. Is it just going to be clear coated now or are you doing anything else to it? (the finish I mean) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hooglebug Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share Posted March 23, 2011 theres going to be a darker almost black around the edge that carries on onto the back as the back wood isnt terribly attractive. the neck will be glued in but taped off so its still just plain maple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Mind if I post that mock up for others to see? There's one thing I'm thinking of changing...I've never really liked the strap button being on the horn like that. It's almost as thin as an SG horn from the looks of things...any ideas for a modified horn that would still look good with the rest of the shape?

hooglebug Posted March 26, 2011 Author Share Posted March 26, 2011 you can post it if you want. i never really thought about it as i usually have mine flush as i use the push in straplocks. i'll have a play and see whats what Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hooglebug Posted March 26, 2011 Author Share Posted March 26, 2011 the neck is being glued in now, and will be carved into the heel so its nice and smooth. the body back will be bursted, so do i tape the neck off and leave it natural or burst the neck as well?

hooglebug Posted March 31, 2011 Author Share Posted March 31, 2011 finally got the bridge so could drill all the holes and route for the pickup. its so much easier when your drill press can reach all the holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
