Australian Made guitars - limited run

[demonx]

Anyone that wants to jump the wait lists and get a nearly finished guitar, I'm trying to finish off some that were started last year but customer builds kept shoving these ones to the side.

First off we have a 7 string bolty, router for bareknuckles and a kahler:

Then there is this neckthru that needs a home:

Contact me if you're keen as they are up for a quick sale, more details on my facebook page. Hit the like button as every now and then I'll have other gems pop up for sale as well.

Bit of a group shot - #3 is still waiting to be finish sanded and grainfilled, so it's missing from this pic:

Some more pics from Allan:

Allan's new assistant working on the grain fill, sanding and oiling.
(Some of you might remember him from that insanely cool star guitar with 1.5 million pieces of wood)

keeping warm by the fire! After all Ballarat can get quite chilly.

In the previous post from Allan, my guitar is the one closest to the Australian flag, so wont post that again.

It's crazy that you have a fire going, and Im installing a second airconditioner. Straya mate!

When I go out at 9am I need the fire, by midday I'm in a tshirt!

Just depends on the day. Aircon is on the list though. Def need it in summer

Nice to see there are other Aussie builders out there who don't strip screws on these trems.
