      Thanks mate. It took me 8 months of an hour here and there. But its in my son's possession now, and he loves it. Making my second now, a Les Paul Jr for me!

              How's it sound ?

              Had it road tested by someone who can rip some riffs on a guitar ?

              Looks magnificent...probably better put together than a real one....hanging to see how your Les Paul comes out...my favourite...Ace played one of those for Kiss and they were my first love...

                  I started carving the neck.

                  Here are shots of the Head and Heel transitions.

                        Cheers Loz. I had a shitload of tools left over after I renovated my place and thought I need to make stuff to use these expensive tools.

                        So I thought...guitars! LOL.

                        Its easier than making Crystal Meth.

                                Stephen,
                                your brother has done some things. He would have known a few of my friends like Dennis Wilson (not the beach boys) who were doing stuff like that in the 70s and 80s.
                                He was with Swanee for a long time as were a few other mates of mine.
                                The Internet is a place for posting silly things
                                Try and be serious and you will look stupid
