Krieg goes on. Neck laminates are being glued together.

I hope things will start moving faster now.

gluing successful

now, while, waiting for the maple 26.5 fretboard being shipped from lmii, the inlay will be prepared...

big one on the 12 fret

Slavonian amulet symbol used on weapons and armors. The idea is that any malicious fella will be hit by thunder while trying to tresspass the limits

seems quite metal to me lol maybe Ill add something else to the body if Ill have enough pearl. I dont want to make any fret markers or side inlays at all.

Looking good. What are you making that inlay out of?

Im thinking about white pearl. I could also use golden, but I dont want it to stand out on maple fretboard to much.

thats strange, what hosting should I use then?

well now I`ll have to start thinking about the bridge. Im not very happy with some moments in hipshot. First of all I want to make a larger area for saddles to contact with the base plate. On ordinary bridges they transfer vibrations to the body through stupid height adjusment screws. But, hell, its not a production guitar.. So who needs em? =) btw, I really dig Spector- style (or not Spector? well some cool bass production company) bridges where overall base plate height is adjusted by eccentric. Meh Im to lazy.
