velorush Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 So, some of the ideas that have been banging around in my head have started to take shape..... The center guitar is particularly interesting as I see a double cut that 1. has an arched top and 2. has an offset to the cutaways (oh yeah, and ebony...)! Also extremely interested to see a full shot of the leftmost with that extended upper horn! Carved top aside, I'm recalling the very exciting discussion of a "Working Man Guitar" back a year or so ago... now who was it that started that thread? That discussion lasted six months and covered sixteen forum pages. Epic (like these photos)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmatthes Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 As an English Major, I am rarely at a loss for descriptive words. I can't think of any in my bag of tricks that adequately describe how cool I think these are! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't think of any in my bag of tricks that adequately describe how cool I think these are! No need to move into distortion yet. The pics don't show that much. There's more to come. What will you say then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veatch Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 The tops on your prototypes are better than some other manufacturer's "4A" tops... Surprised no one mentioned the solid maple body in the one pic. This is getting very cool indeed! Great work, Mike! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc2 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Guitars....made out of wood ? PURE GENIUS!!!!! The little flamey lines are a cool touch. If you were in Asia, you could do those phtographically on balsa wood to save money. You're such a throwback. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is getting very cool indeed! Great work, Mike! All in the perspective - I didn't consider that was flame maple because the few times I've ran a router it ended up burning "flames" into the wood - looked a lot like that, so seeing the side going by the bit, I never checked up (or looked at the top). Flametabulous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubs_42 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I just spent almost all day noodling with my guitars. My PRS's and my Phantom, then I pulled the Shishkov out tonight and I was completely blown away. I had so much fun today but everything just went to 11!

The Shark Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 All day I've been picturing the carve-top in the middle with two studs and a wrap around bridge. All day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
