NGD(nearly) - Feline Lion Special

[AndyR]

EDIT: I think personally I'd go for an SG-like "dark cherry" stain myself, possibly even finish in oil after that (is that possible? a stain then oil? would it be possible to keep the binding without stain?) but that's just cos I'm rather fond of that colour and I like the feel of fadeds/etc

Think I'll go with plan A on this one but will keep your colour scheme in mind if I make another - maybe it will end up in your collection  :D

:lol: I've been thinking about it on and off all morning - Missus R doesn't know yet, though. I've even been wondering what I'd use it for and therefore what type of pickups I'd need/want in there.

I'm definitely buying into the "SG/Junior but with the luxuries of carved top and binding" concept now. It sounded like a good idea in theory anyway, but I think you could well be on to something here.

Definitely needs a finish, although it looks mighty nice already!

I think the arched top is a good idea, even on the Cub model, for that little bit of extra playing comfort.  I think an LP-type with Strat-like contouring might also be interesting.

Lovely guitar, as always!

You mean the forearm contour? Or the belly cut? Or both?

I never notice the ridge on the top of my LP when I'm playing, but I've usually got a sore arm after gigs, and the singer in my psychobilly band uses my LP and it hurts him. I really notice the ridge when I play a Rickenbacker in that same band, too.

I dunno if a LP with a forearm contour would ever look "right" though.

Both, I guess.  Belly cut for certain, forearm contour would probably look weird, you're right... but I'm thinking unbound top, because binding always adds a bit of a sharp edge anyway.

So a contoured Junior type.... singlecut PRS Mira?

We did the arm and belly contour on our Tiger Cub, so I'm sure it can be done on the Lion cub

Here is a piccy of the hybrid Tiger cub - showing the arm contour

 Gosh, gotta win the lottery. :)

I will let you pay by installments if it helps - get the guitar when it's paid for

That's a nice gesture, but at the moment I have no bucks for my daily GAS. I responded cause I admire your ideas and workmanship.

Thankyou. I appreciate the kind words.
That offer is open to anyone here - happy to facilitate a sale as long as it can be done in a reasonable time frame.
