This is one I built about 7 yrs ago.
I always wanted a Golden Aniversery Strat so I built this one.

I knocked this one up about 8 years ago with a totally knackered swirled body I got in a job lot of parts. It had loads of scratches and paint missing through to the white undercoat.
I retouched up all the damage and cleared it and added a few extra bits of swirl with an air brush (scarlet red and purple) as it wasn't exactly the best swirl in the world.

So while i didnt get to do the FF7 Buster Sword Inlay, she still came out pretty damn amazing. Check the NGD for pics and vids.

Wow! Beautiful work.

I particularly love the "headstock" - a lot of care and taste instead of the usual abrupt cut-off.

I'd love to see a picture of this guitar being held in playing position. Looks like it will balance beautifully.

Knarbens, your whole build is amazing and inspiring, but on top of everything, I love how the back of the neck/faux headstock flows into the top (or front, semantics truthfully); it's like it's a masterful painting

So I finally finished my chambared headless FF7 prototype build.

Oh my god. I love *everything* about this! The way you carved the leg rest area is exactly what I would do if ...you know... I had any talent in this area! Please take this beyond prototyping!
