Quite like the look of this although the neck could be more classy. He appears to have teh skillz looking at that body and i'd like to hear how it sounds.
I saw this and a couple of details put me off. There are no rear shots which also means there is no picture of the neck joint. It's probably fine, and there's probably a neat control plate for the controls. That's not outrageous but when the guy says in his description he intends to start a small company building these you'd think he'd be proud enough of his craftsmanship to show off the details.
Also the bridge pickup mounting ring is missing two screws. Again it's not enough to cause alarm bells to ring but considering he is the guy who built it, it shows a lack of attention to detail that could mean there are problems elsewhere.
Well spotted on the screws James. He seems to have pride though, large pictures, already a V owner... i thought the neck joint looked extremely tidy from the side shot.
If I was in benecol's location i'd go and try this thing out, its cool as fuck. The pups are worth £150+ on there own.
What do you guys reckon, worth a gamble at sub £120?
If it sells for less than the cost of the pickups, then DOO EET! At worse, if it sucks, you can part it out for profit and put the body in the recycling bin.
Still no reply from my email. Either the back looks like dogshite or he thinks im trying to steal his ideas (i told him i'd built a few geetars myself..)
Either way, its jumping up in price now.
