Dæmoness custom #2 in progress (pics)

[Nolly]

Hey guys,

I put down a deposit on a 2nd guitar from Dylan right around the same time as ordering my 7-string.
Anyway, this guitar is going to bear some similarities to make them look coherent as a duo, but it's also going to have a very different aesthetic.

Here's the spec:

-Dæmoness Cimmerian 6-string body. "Contemporary" top carve
-Swamp Ash body, 3-pc birdseye/flamed maple neck w/birdseye board
-5A flamed maple top, matching headstock overlay
-BRIGHT PINK stain (!!) on the top, natural satin back
-decorative 12-th fret inlay design (secret for now)
-Black bound neck and h'stock
-Schaller Hannes bridge, Sperzel locking tuners
-Pickups to be decided


Here is the first batch of pics, as you can see, the build has already progressed quite far.


















Finally, this always makes me chuckle when I see it:

Did your luthier just flip us the bird?

I want to know what the bullshitee and high quality bullshitee is.

And, nice looking woods.

[FernandoDuarte]

Awesome! Even the pink will be cool for a kinda "joke" thing, but I can't like HSS and even less HS :(

But it will look great! Lovely woods! :D

[Dr. Stein]

Nice. I'll be interested to see how the carve comes out.

i may have to reserve judgement until i see what this bright pink stain is like, but it's looking great so far :lol:

Cheers dudes  :)

Dr. Stein, the carve will be basically the same as on my 7:

I'm finding it easy to imagine the bright pink stain.  I think it's going to look good.  :D

looks great.i think if i had 3 wishes the second would be to be a great player, followed by a great luthier, i'm
constantly amazed by the quality of the luthier made guitars i see here. by the way, freshly cut ash turns pink on contact
with the air, so maybe nature really wanted pink wood!

[Roobubba]

Loooovely :)

What would be first?  World peace?

You've been living in France too long.

I just got back from Dylan's workshop.. it's time to reveal the inlay!







For those not familiar with it (and I wouldn't expect you to be!), it's the eye from the Red Seas Fire artwork.

The rest of the guitar is coming along great too, here are some snaps of the progress on the carve:
