a matching pair

[hooglebug]

both fretboards bound and radiused (10-14"). will do inlays tomorrow

:o

nice little touch with the end of the fretboard.

personally i am not too keen on multiply on fretboards, mainly because i worry about the outer strings wearing it quicker.... but it does look smashing

ivory inlays

HOLY shite!

Beautiful work, love the double cut one myself. Now that's what you call a long tenon!!!  :D  Those guitars are really superb.

[FernandoDuarte]

I like the minimalist inlay!

[MrBump]

This is like a striptease!

I can only echo what's been said - lovely looking guitars.

Are you a pro builder, Hooglebug?  You seem to be getting through the project at a cracking rate...

[hooglebug]

i wouldnt exactly call myself a pro. im using cheap tools - drill press, free scroll saw, a router and angle grinder, rest are hand tools - in my cramped dusty garage hehe

[hooglebug]

have been a bit poorly and dealing with some things lately hence the lack of updates, but heres some pics. just got a bit more shaping on the bass sides of the bodies and then lots and lots of sanding

[sgmypod]

so is this now a business

[FernandoDuarte]

Love it! :D

[hooglebug]

iv been ill for the last month or so, otherwise they'd both be finished, but iv only been able to do so much a day so just been working on one at a time.

so this ones done

[Twinfan]

Wow - really nice!  Liking the doublecut with P90s  :)

[PhilKing]

It looks really nice.  there are a lot of subtle details in it.  I really like the way you have the headstock reflecting the carve of the body. 

[AndyR]

That is a lovely looking piece of work :D
