I salute his ingenuity, and I know Aen likes it, but I'm not a big fan: I just don't think Fenders, apart from teles, lend themselves that well to the Trussart treatment. And the f-hole is a little too big and a little too high. And the scratch plate makes it look a little 'Games Workshop' for my liking.

Woah, I love it.
I'd have to add some more copper and cogs and make it a bit more steampunk though.
I'd have the trem plate be a cog YES!

Haha you guys kill me. Too true.
I do like it, but I like Trussart Teles a bit better. The pale maple neck is kinda incongruous.

neck looks shit on it, so does the stupid f hole
the back looks proper geeky though, i think with an aluminium neck and no f hole and fake aging crap i would be interested, well i still would like to hear it
but as for metal and guitars travis bean still wins

I don't get why you'd want a hollowbody guitar and then have the back full of holes? Doesn't that defeat the point? The f-hole looks ugly anyway, but some of that builder's other guitars looked pretty sweet.

The more I look at it the more I love it.
Needs a new neck though.

I hate guitars like that, they look like Kevin Costner would play one while swilling his own piss.

Personally I love it.
I'd love to hear what it sounds like. I bet it sounds like Silent Hill.

I predict a klang.
Just the same, he should have chosen between a contour and an f-hole: Both is like a pizza with extra crust on top .
