Instead of giving it a Parker Headstock you should give it the reverse Blackmachine Headstock. especially with the eye of horus inlay.the headstocks are basically the same so. this is looking pretty fly though (no pun intended [pun totally intended])

:rofl: On topic though, the carving is insane, I can't imagine pulling that off by hand. Should be one very very sexy fanned 7!

To provide some update, danifigo is doing the fretwork ATM, also the inlay at the 12th fret which is going to be my trademark eye of Horus thing :) Hope that I can post some pics soon :) \m/

I call Photoshop!!! hahaha :lol: It looks great though. good wood contrast choices. I'm not too partial to guitars that are all dark or all light. but truly i just don't like rosewood boards hahaha. ebony or any kind of maple for me.

Also it looks like you nicked it a bit of the maple in the very center. just a small part of the "pupil" looks like its missing.
