Hello all! First post here. I feel humbled to post my build in this thread with so many fantastic builds! This is my first ever guitar build, done from scratch obviously with strong PRS influences. It isn't a straight copy when it comes down to some fine details, with just a few things done more how I wanted them for this build. I'm also not a woodworker, so I took this one slow and did my homework. I had some help from my father, who isn't a woodworker either, hah! It was a good reason to visit often and a good project like we hadn't done together in a while.

Now of course I'm planning new builds - my second build will probably be a 7 string. I've never owned an extended range guitar of any kind, so I'm pretty excited to get it built. My interest in 7 strings has really piqued lately, but I figure why buy when I can make a great guitar and a great project at the same time! Anyway, on to the pics of my build:

love the single hum
oh me too man, i love the way it looks, i had originally planed on slapping a hb in the neck position, but once i had it all layed out this was the way to go for sure. that pickup sounds great to my ears too. certainly owns its name "crunch lab 7"
