the point of the iceman was, a) first guitar i really GASed for!, B) i had templates, C) it was a simple build to reinvigorate the need to build guitars!
Its simpler than most stuff i build, but it works well and already suits a bridge emerald pickup i had found difficult to place in other guitars - just trying to decide if the neck pup is right for it. tbh its one of those guitars that is better for being simple and now its strung i appreciate its already one of my better ones. the neck was always pretty nice but it works better with this simple slab of mahogany than it did with an expensive slab of laminated black limba & burl maple... and it sounded pretty good before
I have also been working on other long running projects which you will all see when they are at a stage i am happy with... soon
