there is a collage of workshop pix here:

Interesting!  I noticed the weight relief routing isn't always exactly the same - any specific reason for that?

Actually there are 2 rogue photos in there , showing an older version
The ones with the weights written on them are the 20ths
We do take differing amounts to achieve approximately the same end weight

I will put up a page spotlighting this issue as my  colleague Graham has written a technical piece on why and how we do do what we do.

Looking good Jon. I can still remember how good one of your lions were with the VH11s in. They sound so good in your guitars.
I still play my lion all the time. It gets lots of compliments and wow what guitar is that comments.  :D

nice colours there. i'm a total sucker for those aqua-type bursts so it's no surprise i like it, but the red one looks badass too.

Brazillian rosewood is on the list of banned tonewoods - it'd be hard enough to obtain a fingerboard of it, let alone wood to make a whole guitar.

Supposing you could obtain it, that would be one expensive guitar! 

And it would weigh a $%&#ing ton.


Fire & Ice looking great, by the way!

I'll be visiting Feline soon to get a tuneomatic setup and slotted properly. I can see the visit may leave me GASsing badly.
