i intend to use it until i can sell it to fund making the next one which will be rather different from this one i think. thats if i can sell it. if not, i'll just have to dream about making another

well i got the qoute - the cover design for this one would cost £75 to convert to dxf file!!!! and the design for another one is £175!!!!!!!!

so iv downloaded an autocad thingy and will try to do a dxf file myself as i really cant be affording that on top of the pups

Looks amazing, should be awesome with the engraved pickups in there.

Looking to mic nailbombs and mississippi queen on a guitar I'm planning to get built, should be a really nice combo I think.

Awesome!

Very pretty!

How much would one of those set me back?

How's the bridge sound? I had heard that without polepieces, it reduced the output? What Pickup you got in there too?

Nice work!

thanks guys

will - its a nailbomb. this is the first nailbomb iv used so i couldnt tell you if the cover makes a difference or not, but it sounds rather yummy

noodleplugerine - this particular one would be £1650. the same guitar with a mahogany neck would be £50 cheaper
