New build - HENT one piece 7string!

[technomancer]

Cool to see somebody other than KxK doing one piece guitars. The one piece mahogany singlecut seven I had sounded HUGE.

This is going to be sweet

Man, you should hang that or something. It just looks too cool.

PLEASE tell me he'll let you keep that scrap wood. That'd make a wicked plaque on the wall with a hanger through it.

Sweet thread too btw.

What do you call that neck construction? Neck-is-body? Get it? Nevermind....

Haha, yeah, thats actually not a bad idea

I'm gonna ask him, I'm sure he wouldn't mind. I think I'll also ask him to make it thinner though

No, that would be "body-thru-neck" construction...

I always referred to it as a unibody construction. My buddy's dad has an old single piece Ibanez and it's absolutely amazing.

OT: This build is coming out great! Everything looks so clean, can't wait to see the finished product.

turn the off-cut into the best custom guitar case ever.

.. and probably the heaviest as well

The thought did cross my mind though

Speaking of weight, what is amazing is that this guitar turns out is not going to be that heavy at all! Even the luthier was amazed. It will probably fit into the mid weight category once it's fully assembled, but definetly not heavy like you'd expect from maple guitars. Maybe it's cos, unlike most flamed maple guitar woods, this one was cut from the "heart" of the tree (he explained it to me today). That's the reason why it doesn't look like the typical flamed maple (which I personally would never go for).

Yeah he really keeps his work tidy... unlike his basement

There's a one-piece flamed maple Ritter Roya bass. It's damned amazing.

Ritter Roya Concept Nr. 0916

The price of that thing is hugely unrealistic IMO (20k euros, as it was mentioned). I can't see what could possibly make it that worth.
