Celtic Esquire

Lookin' good  :)

[AndyR]

Tis looking very good :D

[tomjackson]

just to clarify - i did mean that i like to give the wood chance to settle in after major steps

glueing a fretboard can add moisture and cause movement,  carving a neck can release internal tensions in the wood and cause movement.  a week or so's rest between stages like this helps save problems later

I though you meant it really tired you out when you carved a neck so you would need a bit of R&R in the Cotswolds or something.  But now I see :)

with the mac ebony neck i have just carved that may be true

I thought I would revive this old thread now that the guitar is finally complete! :D

I have had it for almost a week now and have been playing it every night, it honestly sounds brilliant. The BKP Black Dog sounds great in full series and in parallel and it also has a push/pull pot on the tone control for the 'c--ked wah' effect which also sounds great and is fun to mess around with.

There are so many different sounds you can get out of this guitar. I played for at least a few hours last night jamming along to some Led Zeppelin, ZZ Top, Deep Purple, Judas Priest and even some Ted Nugent (cat scratch fever!)

This was most definitely worth the wait, the craftsmanship is top notch, kudos to Wez for that ;). And as it has my favourite football clubs logo on the front just makes it that bit more special to me.

I hope Mike is as happy with his Rangers Esquire as I am with mine.

As I don't have a working camera at the moment I will post a pic that Wez sent me of it before it was sent out:

Nice one Jonathan ..... hope it kicks ass

I'll have to post a thread on the Aston Villa Flying V I'm making
It's gonna be like Michael Schenker's black and white V but in Claret and Blue with V shaped inlays

[TheIronBeast]

That sounds like a cool guitar, Jon! You should definitely post a thread about that guitar.

Is it going to have the Aston Villa logo on it somewhere? Or just the team colours and V inlays?

[FELINEGUITARS]

Just the colour scheme......he didn't feel the need for the badge

[WezV]

just posted mike's off to him so i hope he likes it too- will find out tomorrow :)



Thanks jonathan and jonathan (just remembered i need to phone feline!! ;)

[Twinfan]

Top work Wez - they look superb!

[marantz1300]

Hail! Hail! Looks great,surley it should be hoops though. I dont like the look of that "forces of darkness" blue one . :lol:

[FELINEGUITARS]

Are these two "self-relicing" guitars?

Leave them overnight in a room together and they will beat the cr@p out of each other

[Philly Q]

I have to say colour-wise I prefer the green, although I don't really have a Celtic/Rangers preference.  :)

Does the Celtic one have a soul detector to make sure only the right people can play it?

[FernandoDuarte]

Nice guitar! :)
