Hey guys, thought I'd throw up some pictures of my strandberg style build. My local luthier is putting it all together for me.
Specs:
7 string
Black Limba Body w/ a layer of ash sandwiched in between
Set-thru Maple neck w/ two purpleheart stripes, macassar ebony fretboard
-The neck was made by Doug at Soulmate guitars.
24 stainless steel jumbo frets, 26.5 scale.
Strandberg headless bridge.
BKP Ceramic Nailbomb calibrated set.
1 push-pull volume, 1 3-way blade.
Nitro-lacquer clear finish.
Progress Pics:
Body rough shaped out, neck pocket routed.
Neck Pocket
Mockup w/ neck not glued in, headstock still needs to be chopped off
Getting closer, body cleaned up a bit, pickups and control cavity routed, bridge not yet mounted.
It shouldn't be long now!
