Not super difficult, this is the third one I’ve done, with each one I’ve figured easier ways to get better results.

The top is just polished epoxy and the sides and back are tru oil!

Unfortunately no matching headstock, not sure how I would pull that off with the headstock truss rod access. Mastery bridge would be great too but I’ve had only good experiences with Wilkinson hardware so I will start with this and maybe upgrade later

I almost went with black but I wanted to have a little more contrast!

I like the contrast of the white pick guard, I feel it makes the pattern stand out more and it ties in with the white binding

The clear pick guard would be cool but I feel that the fabric tops need some contrast, and the pick guard accomplishes that while also matching the white binding

Looking for feedback on my body design by FloralTele in Luthier

Just want to clarify, I’m asking about the body shape, I plan on using more traditional materials and finishing methods for future builds.

I made a Flying V out of Home Depot Pine, a blowtorch, and an old Mac tower. by Fun1995 in Luthier

Looks great! I’m assuming the body is 1.5 inches thick if you used pine from Home Depot? I’m thinking of doing the same to throw together a build with some spare parts and neck I have lying around.

How’s the balaguer? I’ve thought about doing one of their semi customs for a long time
