Argh, how you tease us with your close-ups!

Dude, I have 2 guitars to pimp-out, 1 guitar body that needs to be turned into a pimped guitar proper, a student loan to pay back, and THEN I can think about getting my lefty 8!

 

[Scott]

Everything else goes on the back burner. Lefty 8 is top priority. Fuck if I had your currency, i'd have 2 oni's on order right now

URGH, I'm going to have to sign a contract stating I won't put money into an Oni until I attempt to build my own guitar but man...I've got GAS bad.

Here's a question.

How hard are chords on a fanned fret guitar?

i dont know but i bet its not too easy when you have to do them backwards

 

[gojira]

the lacewood is looking good - better than i thought it would......

reckon those little cnc machines are big enought to do a neck or body?

hurry up and finish these so i can get mine you slack bitch.

the micro mills are only good for hardware and maybe small templates and stuff like that. They cost about AU$3000. The smallest ones I can find to so a good job of necks and bodies are more like $10000. The template sytem I've got going is pretty efficient. I can see quite a bit of time needed to get a CNC working properly with wood - it's far less predictible than metal and plastic.
Lefty multi-scales are no more trouble than right handed ones in my situation. Altering a production line is difficult though.

Oh but making guitars for lefties is serving satan - as they are all the children of incubi.....

May not be much trouble now - but later on when you are boiling in pitch with all your lefty buddies - dont say i told you so.
