Yeah it will be a SGR Special made by Paul at PR Guitars! Do you still have your SGR Twinfan?

Yup, sure do  :)  I've been using it a lot recently, and it's heading out for a gig on Friday night as well.

Also nice to see the archetypal photo of a guitar with the luthiers trainers  :lol:  

Nice to see pics of Paul's dining room and living room too!  :lol:

I don't really like the headstock and this strange cut at the body's bottom, but the wood is superb and the craftmanship's obviouly top notch. Looks like it's gonna be a nice guitar.

Looks lovely!  I'm starting to get used to the wacky details of the body and headstock shapes, I wasn't at all keen when Dave got his first PR.

Thanks for all the comments  :D It sure is made out of nice wood.. but I do hand pick all my own wood.
This guitar has a standard body (two humbuckers) but with a special neck. It will be finished very soon and the best part of making a guitar is playing it for the first time  :D
Yes I am making a nice purple heart SGR and I will post some pic's.

You've got your templates upside down. Everythings backwards.

I've had the guitar for a few weeks now and the quality is amazing! Im very pleased with how it turned out. It has a longer scale length than my epiphone SG, but bends are really easy on the stainless steel frets and it just feels so much nicer to play compared to my other guitars  :) :) :)

Very tasty indeed.

It took me a while to get used to the left-handed look (I immediately liked the extra detail in the body when I first saw pictures of the right-hand versions, the left-hand version looked a bit odd at first but I soon got used to it).

OK Philly - you got the pickups. How about these:

1. What gauge is the fretwire?
2. What make are the strap buttons?
3. What vacuum cleaner does he use to keep the carpet so clean?

:wink: :lol:
