Hey everyone!
Sorry It has taken me so long to post a welcome thread, I have been very busy with my first semester here at U PITT. My name is Josh, and I joined about a month ago, and I am amazed at the sense of community and focus here at gmc! I recently discovered that I am member 6000 as well, so that is quite amazing. I have been playing for about 5 years now, and play metal, blues, rock, and am starting to get into alot of neo classical as well. Hope to learn from everyone and hoefully teach a few things myself wink.gif I also build guitars, so anyone willing to talk shop or just interested send me a message!

After about 2 years of work I have finished my most recent project, so here it is.
Specs are fairly close to a sandard sg, as far as size.
Pickups- Seymour Duncan ds-1 in the bridge and 59' in the neck
rosewood fingerboard
the body is a bit more complicated, the "wings" are maple, the very center strip a piece of birdseye maple taken from the same tree as the outer portions. The "stripes" are composed of rosewood, ash, and koa, form inside out. the pick guard is just clear plastic, cut to shape.
Tune-o-matic bridge and silver hardware.
plays beautifully, and if i get some time a proper recording equipment, ill post some samples later.
Love to hear feedback, so let me know what you think! biggrin.gif Attached ImageAttached Image

Heya. As I said on facebook - nice work on the guitar. I made a recent forum thread on homemade customs. Perhaps you'd like to post your pics again and bump the thread. Especially if you've got some new beauties to show off :)
