Neko Guitars Ouroborus 7 progress pics. (Headless content)

[juwanfidle09]

Hi everyone! Just sharing these build pics of my soon-to-be guitar. I've been gassin' for a headless 7-string since 2012. Luckily, the guys at Neko (the company that I'm working with) had designed a headless model and are currently making affordable kits (body and neck).

Specs:

Bolt-on neck
C-shape neck
5-pc neck (canadian maple and south american rosewood)
Maple fretboard
16" fingerboard radius
Nickel silver frets
Width at nut - 48mm
Thickness at 1st fret - 21mm
Thickness at 12th fret - 23mm

As for the pickups, I'm planning to get BKP Nailbombs with tyger covers.

Hipshot goodness!

How much is the base rate for something in this style?

 

[HurrDurr]

cool! subbed!
Can I ask why the screw on the A-tuningpeg is changed? and is it just me, or is the high E-tuningpeg a bit crooked?

neck and body looks awesome. i LOVE the inlays!

Thanks man! The high E-tuning peg is just loose. As for the screw color, I have no clue :/ The guys at NK told me that they received the hardware with it.

White back? I likes. Reminds me of some old BRJs.

Really freaking cool build. Perfect color choices too.

Thanks everyone!

Front shot!

I'm thinking about buying one too! How do you like it so far? Is the neck really as thick as it looks like?

cheers

Yea man thats a cool build so far. I like the white back too, not something you see every day but it totally works with this guitar!

 

[Progmandjent]

have you already finished assembling all the parts?

 

[SnowfaLL]

I'd love to see a version with an ergo cut, but even then it sounds like a great deal if its of a decent quality. Nice.

It's not yet with me. Still waiting for updates from the guys at Neko. I'll be posting a review and demo vid as soon as I get it. Though it would be a lot better if you'd send them a message at their FB page. I believe they have 2 headless kits left.

Another set of build update pics, test fitting the hardware and pickups to see what it would look like.
