Something Vik this way comes!

Amazing what happens when you wet/oil a top!

 

[MAJ Meadows SF]

Holy immaculate oiled tits on a dolphin. So much fucking wow, I need to punch myself. Can't wait to see that polished up! That's exactly why I want a redwood burl top for the 8 string run on here. Bravo dude.

If you do not post a video clip of this when the NGD arrives, this forum might crash. Our fate is now in your hands.

I gotta know how that snakewood was to work with for the FB. I hear it can be difficult to work with, but I want to work it into my next build.

 

[technomancer]

Damn that looks fantastic

Good lord. Forgot about this build; looks amazing!

Is there a reason you didn't want to try doing the snakewood opposite the burl on the headstock? Almost too much maple tones in that headstock with the binding too...

Regardless, Vik's work is, again, PHENOMENAL!

IIRC Vik sent me pictures (this was a while ago) and the maple just looked better. It fits with the ivory tuners and control knobs, the swamp ash bits that are visible in the cut-outs and the binding on the body and neck. If you look at the guitar in its entirety it makes more sense.

Also, the logo will be on that part too so it won't look quite so "overmapled"

 

[kruneh]

Amazing!
How many times do I need to say how much I love this one..

 

[Rhyooski]

Holy shit man this is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.

The texture and color in that burl is just ridiculous.
