Thats classy! Exactly the 8 I would build. High five.

Thanks!

Did you refinish the headstock to match?

Nope. It will happen in the future though :hbang:

Its a hammer hanger from the hardware store. i beat it wider with a hammer and a vise and screwed it into a wall stud.

I like it, it is pretty, but I can't believe you ditched the arched top.

It would've been cool to see the RGD style mixed with an arch top.
