deposit sent.
time to find a big hunk of rosewood for the neck.
Awesome. Walnut topped semi-hollow?
Check Gilmer
Walnut yes. Probably semi-hollow. Perhaps a f-hole.
And perhaps an ebony neck (but I'd prefer some form of rosewood)
that's where I got the ebony picture from.. Rob needs at least 42" long and prefers at least 4.5" wide, that's a pretty damn big chunk of wood (at least to me )
^ ah... perhaps I should call and ask if they can cut an appropriately sized blank from their nice Brazilian Kingwood stash
Are finish options an up charge? Like if I wanted to do something like the 7 string proto, upcharge, or no?
Same with the fretboard options.
I'm really really tempted to drop a deposit, just trying to get a feel for what kind of beast I'm toying with here.
With the exception of one option I requested, it seems everything I want won't murder my budget for the year.
In 3 weeks ill probably put money down, pending some traffic fines.
Thanks Steve, for the info and answering my n00b questions.
Would it be ok to post a link to this on another forum I'm a member of?
There aren't many erg guys there, but maybe some will be interested.
Hey techno, what would be the aprox build time ?
The thing is that I want in, but I don't want to put down the deposit until I know the aprox build time or at least if it is going to be something in between 12 and 18 months or more, because if it is that long I can definitely put down the deposit but if it is not I can't, I need to plan my expenses accordingly so I don't get myself into a deal that I won't be able to pay ( sorry for the bad english, english is not my first language).
