Not being painted probably shaved a month off the build time, if the MDV602 was anything to go by.

String differentiation - the seperation of the sound of each string.

ah, ok.
i'll know more when the BLOODY GUITAR IS READY!  :P

Patience, young Padawan! :)

Looking good, can't wait to see the final result!

yes, it's an old tradition in italy, when a new guitar is ready the luthier takes one of the kids that try to play metallica riffs on 10 W transistors that he pretends to sell in his shop and sacrifices him to soak his new creation in his blood.
now it's illegal, but someone continues to do it the old way...

i'm a factory of bulls**t when i'm in the right mood... :P
Mule, MQ, Stockholm, CS, RY, MM, PK, ANB, CNB, AWP, CWP, PiG90...

i don't know EXACTLY why, but he gave me geological, eonic times... he said at least a month.

 :lol: :lol: :lol:

he said AT LEAST a month, that in italy usually means two... ;) the strange thing is that your legra has to be built from scratch, while my guitar has just got to be painted!  :?

The finish will turn out a lot better if it's given a few weeks to really dry properly before the final sanding and polishing.  Anyway, a month or two is nothing - at my age it seems like the blink of an eye!  I've waited longer than that for things to arrive in the post.  :wink:
