It's been a project filled with peaks and valleys. We know a heck of a lot more than we started.
But we actually finished. All different sounding guitars.

The Girls look beautiful!! I was wondering where you got the rosewood from, i've been looking around all over the place and i've spent numerous hours searching the internet, with no luck of finding anything the size that i need for a guitar body. I saw a custom shop stratocaster that was made of solid rosewood with a black pickguard and gold parts and thats that guitar i would like to own. If you could let me know that would be great

It's not Rosewood it's walnut
There is some Rosewood available here.
The Rosewood Tele's I have seen are made ot of Rosewood ( 1") with a maple piece in the middle.

Right on guys! They look fantastic. I'm gonna play "psychic" and say....I see more guitars in your future.( A touch of theramin in the background.HeHeHe.)
You've got an instant jam session waiting to happen there. I'd sure love to hear some A/Bing on the girls. I love to see these builds as much as I like to play, thanks for sharing the girls!!

Thanks dude.
man...i love the one with the lighter body....make one with a maple neck..PLEASE..hehehe
Wow, great job! So there all walnut eh..., how about walnut shell knobs, with a nutcracker whammy? hehehe, I think my favorite is the one with the mini humbucker in the neck, next is the one your are holding.
Keep up the good work.

I was just thinking the exact same thing. Beautiful looking guitars, but for me a maple fretboard would put them over the top.

Gee I guess it's one of those things......I have never liked playing a maple board. I played two strats the other night. One with and one without..... still don't like a maple board.
Funny I got an email from Pauls last night and that Spalted maple guitar has had a neck change and now has a neck with a rosewood board.
The beauty of having a custom guitar is you can mix and match when ever you want without devaluing the guitar :smile:
If you bought one ( nudge wink) you are free to play around

That's because I needed the maple for the squier strat project to brighten it up. The rosewood neck will help tone down the tele. I started out on a maple neck, they both have there own feel... I like them both.
