Now that is a nice SG!
I need that thing :twisted:

What are the other specs on that guitar (the only spec. I know so far is that it is blue )?

mahogany body with maple cap
3 piece mahogany neck with ebony fingerboard
Neck is slim in Ibanez type dimensions
48mm wide at nut and 66mm at body end - slim wizard profile, 14-16" radius fingerboard
25.5" scale with 24 Dunlop frets
6100 up to 15th, and 6105 frets 16-24 (allows for more finger-room at top end)
Gotoh machineheads and tonepros bridge
Customer requested EMG 707s - otherwise would have used BKP - Warpig 7's

Nice!

Is it a set neck construction?

Do you make the compound radius fingerboards yourself?

Nice to see an SG with a Fender scale length...I guess that is because of the 7th string?

How do you get 7 string tuner sets? Do you just split up a set and use the rest for spares and other 7 strings, or do you have a supplier?

I'd smack babies to get my eggle finished like that. Tis beautiful.

Well, they come in stets of 6, so when I went for tuners voor my first building project (which is not finished though), I had to look nice to the guy at the shop, to sell me one out of a set :)

But when you build lots of guitar, and you have certain channels to buy parts, maybe there are other ways.
Or you just build 6 7-strings :D

Yeah - anyone want a set of 5 machineheads - I've got some spare

Yep - a deep tenon set neck
Nicely contoured heel for easy access
Yeah - we do the compound thing ourselves
I have used the stewmac ready to use ones before and they are nice
The 25.5" scale was to keep the 7th string tight without going too fat in the gauge.

I suspect that "Leaky Biro" is gonna become an official colour :lol:
