Yeah, I think you are right. I did a hack photoshop job and it really sat well with the dark lines from the rosewood!

[Scott Auld]

Yeah that's what i was thinking, and the dark around the burst edges too.

That guitar doesn't need a pick guard.
Maybe a clear scratch plate.

Jason

Received guitar yesterday and proceeded to spank her ass

Exceptionally fine neck, the brass fret markers came out spectacular.

The Grain on the Rosewood Veneer is lovely.

I'm really liking the combo tone on the 6 & 8K tap with the CC pup

Very fat with the heavy gauge strings 32-42-52, yet the tone still has plenty of high end without Ice pick twang on the 11 - 13 - 19.

Very nice set up and intonation. Perfect really

The Finish is beautiful and the Guard looks better then in the photo.

It won't take much effort to find one to my liking


It really is a beautiful Guitar in the Flesh so to speak

All in all I'm more then very pleased.. I know you put a lot of work into this and you are a superb luthier.


A very nice Guitar Jason. Thanks for documenting the build.

It has met all the goals I hoped for as far as fining a signature tone goes

It is very well Balanced, even with the Solid Rosewood neck and Veneer on the Solid one piece Pine Body.

The Guitar remains light and lively.

Again the finish and Set up are exceptional.

BTW I dug out my Cameras from all the boxes I had left unpacked and I found the Stratotone Knobs that are going to be cloned. So please take care of the Pick Guard/Pups for me OK!


We will get to that next

Nice Work Thanks Jason
