[Bodes]

Sweet mother of god! That duel tone top!!!

[Demiurge]

Excellent work!

 

[gunshow86de]

That looks fantastic. It's like a more aggressive Klein.

 

[kerouac]

Holy sweet fuckballs, that is AWESOME.

 

[Timelesseer]

Incredible job man. The fretboard and back of the headstock look phenomenal!

 

[Señor Voorhees]

Everything about that neck (headstock, fret board, etc) is downright gorgeous. I'm new here, and all of these new guitar threads are making me and my guitars feel inadequate. Haha!

 

[skeels]

Awesome build, Walt!
Two questions.
What is the nut made of?
Can you tell us more about your pickup making adventure? Was it very difficult?

Ok, that was three questions.

Once again Walterson you have blown me away with your build quality. First your super-strat shape and now this. Have you ever made guitars for people?

 

[celticelk]

[Gregori]

My reaction when I see your builds:

 

[Metaguitarist]

Fucking beautiful man. Every inch of it is just fantastic looking. I wish I could try it out.

 

[ElRay]

Beautiful work. One question, what's horizontal line between the neck and the body:

It looks like there's a spacer between the neck and the body, is that a metal plate for strength? I'm assuming it's a set neck, correct?
