Belle is DONE!!!! Can't wait to get her here and play her, she's a beauty! Shad is a true craftsman and artist, and a great guy to work with....I have GAS worse now that when I placed the order!!!

Nice lines! Tell them to stop putting it on concrete to take pictures, lol.

 

[CowTipton]

Wow!

That looks amazing.

Beautiful! I'm envious of all of you that get the picture updates. I have a custom Dan Ransom, that should be in my hands in a few weeks, but I think my first peek, will be when I open the case.

What a great thread... the build from lumber to finished beauty. Congratulations, she's a killer ax.

[slpayne]

Awesome thread. Cheers to you on getting your custom guitar and for posting the process of the build. How long did the build take? Have you weighed this baby yet?

I just love watching luthiers build guitars. There's just something so beautiful about it.

he doesn't have it just yet, but I can tell you that it weighs 6.25 lbs.

 

[slpayne]

^What he said...I gotta pay Shad the balance first

 

[slpayne]

And the build took probably about 6 or 7 months

Nice lines! Tell them to stop putting it on concrete to take pictures, lol.

The Concrete is just kinda for cool aesthetics, but its not actually on the concrete though, I place pieces of cork padding underneath it at all the points of contact, and am very careful to make sure no damage is incurred. It's just for a cool background.

bump cuz i want more people to see this guitar

 

[magnus02]

Wow!

Everything about this guitar is amazing... I normally can't stand gold hardware but this one kills it.... Enjoy!
