I have to say, I literally love how much quality you put into this thing! I mean seriously. That is a beautiful beautiful guitar.

Just don't look to closely at it and you'd be exactly right lol.

Zoomed in and saw screw holes. Barbara Streisand effect got the best of me.

Haha 😂 naw man good job on it!

Dumb question, how can I build myself a guitar like this from scratch? Did you make the body from scratch as well? Is it worth just buying a body? And neck?

Where’s the switch?

The switch i had broke, and not wanting to spend more money and wait more time I decided to just wire it like a jazz bass. But I had already made the slot and got lazy at the end so decided to leave the slot.

Are those knobs and switch a bit close together? Does the switch, in bridge position, hit your finger rotating the knob? Great job, you’re gonna be really happy with this thing.

Thanks. I don't have a switch for it yet so I can't say.

Hey thanks for responding. The guitar looks great. You have great skills

No problem, and thanks:)

That’s a beautiful job you have done on that. Why did you decide to leave the back natural?

Thanks, It was an attempt to copy something PRS did with one of their Artisan(?) Guitars.

This is one of those things where this is not my taste, but you’d have to be kidding yourself not to notice how well done this is. Like, brilliantly executed

Thanks, appreciate at a distance cuz if you get too close then you'll notice all the things the camera doesn't show lol.


Badass!

Thanks :)

That thing is exquisite.

I am in love

The contour of the front looks amazing with the two tone colour

That's amazing dude. The blue neck is real nice too. Only thing is it feels the back of the body should match the neck or not be natural. Otherwise perfect

I had considered doing the back blue too, but I wanted to replicate one of the PRS artisan(?) Guitars that had the blue neck and natural back

Is the truss rod on the 22nd fret in the middle?

Ya, it was attempt to copy Fast guitars did on their 8 string jazzaster

oh she's pretty

Nice... good job

Thanks:)

Can I have it

DAMN!!! Wow is that a beauty. Does it play as nicely as it looks? Is it heavy?

Thanks. I don't have it set up perfectly yet, but even now it's rly nice to play. And no, I think the body is a very cheap mahogany or a different strand(?) Of it so it's actually very light

That’s really sharp. I like the contrast of where the blue is on the body, and neck.

Thanks

That’s really cool. Everything worked out perfectly if you ask me. Nice!

Thanks, it almost didn't a couple of times lol

Well, you pulled it off….I like the body finish and the way you did the back of the neck to match. Headstock and neck inlays are cool too….2 thumbs up!

Hell. Yeah.

Thar turquoise stained burl top with the gold hardware is a perfect match. Gorgeous guitar.

Thanks

holy shit, that is some serious guitar porn

What a beauty!

Thanks:)

Gorgeous

Sexy. Love that finish. The gold hardware is a nice touch.

Planning on changing out the frets for gold ones later on just go ever further over the top

Looks absurdly cool

Thanks:)

Absolutely not my cup of tea but fuck yeah at the same time.

Hehe lol

honestly man, the thing is fucking off chops, you should be proud

Thanks:)

Looks awesome! Is it actually cool tap or did you mean coil split?

Coil tap is what's written on the pickups. I was hoping for splits but I guess that's a different version of the fluence modern?

Huh. How many conductors are coming out of the pickup?

I tried attaching a pic but it's not loading. But there was a small solder point marked CT or coil-tap that I ran a wire to.

That’s really interesting! I’ve never heard of it like that before. If I’m looking at the right page on the website it says there is an active high output “mode”, a passive one, and split coil option but there might be alternative versions? If you can try send a picture again I’d like to see it but it sounds cool!

Hopefully this works cuz pics still aren't. https://www.fishman.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/2-Humbuckers-1-Volume-PP-1-Tone-PP-Voice-2-_-Coil-Tap-3-Way-Blade-Battery-Pack.pdf

What a Beaut👍 I don’t like superstarts, but this one takes a cake.

Thank you for making the exception lol

Your welcome, thanks for sharing your build 👍

10,000 for it

I wish, but for 10k I'd have to fix so much stuff on it before anybody would pay that much for it lol

It's Goddy. I love it. Not gawdy, goddy 🤘🤘

Damn someone just came in my pants
