We ended up making two of these guitars in the end
The first one which was for Andy had  a pair of Mississippi Queens , but the second one pictured below has some stormy mondays and what a night and day difference there is between them

this one sounds more open and chimey in a more single coil way whilst the MQs had a fat bluesy/R&B thing going on

We chose a classic cherry sunburst for this one


The back view showing the ribcage contour in the mahogany back , which is chambered for weight and sound too - it achieves a sound somewhere between a tele thinline and a 335 when played unplugged


One of my favourite jack sockets - the electrosocket  - guides the tip of the jack plug into the switchcraft jack
A great replacement upgrade for a tele style jack


Our all access neck joint works nicely here


The headstock is a tiltback design - not unlike a Gibson/PRS - no need for string trees


The headstock has a matching overlay

Almost forgot to show the pickup covers which are lovely black ones
Bridge is my favourite hardtail - the Hipshot version

Absolutely stunning !  You can almost feel them in your hands,  just looking at the pictures.   Affordable luxury at it's best.  :D

excellent too

I think i prefer the slightly more subtle/subdued colour of the first one, but they're both really nice

Those are both amazing looking guitars. I only hope they play as good as they look!
