That's a nice looking guitar man! And it especially rocks because it's custom made!

Lovely Muris,
and a big welcome to the custom built guitar club  .Quick questions - is it a bolt on or glued in neck - and why? Also are you cutting away part of the heel profile for access to the top frets or not? Like the scalloping - am I right that's its just the e.b and g strings from 21-24? Lovely guitar and thanks for sharing the pictures of its construction. Cheers, Tony -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.

Hey Tony
It's bolt on with really great link between body and neck,almost like one part. Sustain is awesome. And yeah,form 21 to 24 I have scalloped frets,just to get better and easier vibrato. At those frets strings are really nasty to have cool bend and add vibrato... Thanks for your kind comment,it always great to hear from you!! -------------------- Youtube

Sure you must be counting of the days/hours until its finished and in your hands Muris
. Nice about the scalloping I sort of regret not having done the same. Ah well...I'm jealous I so want another guitar (but my wife is on to me  ).Cheers, Tony -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.

We must take a look after them so they could afford us a scalloped neck.  Cheers

Hey Muris, that looks like a lot of fun to build a guitar of your own. And that one you're building looks great!

Thanks Kris,must throw it to you when it's done!
Hemlok,my friend Mirza Kovacevic runs this custom shop so he's my partner in crime for this. I'm not so familiar with brands and types of colors and lacquers he's using,tho he has many of them. As far as I know,we colored it with very easy orange/yellow,so it still has that nature look,not too much paint on it indeed. Then we did burst and at the time we speak he's putting final lacquers and then goes polishing. That's all I know,as I said before,I'm not really informed to this technique and job.
