Custom fanned-fret 7-string project (Parker Fly shape)

[danifigo]

Dude, that's super tight and clean. Can you give a little insight on your process for doing this?

Yes i can
But it might be a bit dissapointing: no magic here guys, of course not a ps-ed pic, it's supertight because it is made by a cnc router. IMO If you want something to be tight like this one ( with minimized width: thinnest curves around 1 mm ) you have to use tech-tools instead of bare hands.

Mother clucker this is going to look so badass. A reversed headstock would look pretty sweet on this too

Aww, shit. I bought a couple of actual Parker fly bodies a few years ago, one with a super nice quilted maple top, with the intention of making a Fly 7 or 8. They've just been sitting in my house, and YOU WILL BE THE FIRST NOW.

But seriously, dude, it's looking great. That inlay is killer, too.

It's been done: LOOTNICK custom guitars, gitary lutnicze

Though nowhere near as nice as yours.

 

[bluevoodoo]

true, I thought Lootnick did only 6-string Fly copies, kudos go to him!
