Bassassin Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 Love it - a really striking & imaginative piece of design, really the only thing that spoils it as far as I'm concerned are the messy-looking inlays on the front. Jon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ou7shined Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 Pretty cool. The headstock and tuners arrangement is inspiring. Pity it looks like someone's curled one out over the neck heel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarky Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 I spotted this and immediately thought of Spoombung but I suspect even he would consider that a curve too far! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yorick Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Like the body, neck etc. But the headstock is fugly. Obviously had a lot of work/love thrown at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
