Hey all,
New to the forum. Just got myself a Dual Recti with a sweet Marshall cab. I design custom guitars and work with a private luthier buddy of mine who builds them. Figured I'd share a few with my new amigos .
This is my latest, a slim-bodied, neck thru 25.5 scale custom LP. The finish is our own version of Dragonburst, it has 24 frets on an ebony board with block inlays (abalone framed in mother of pearl). The body is super high grade mahogany, as is the neck (and the neck thru is done in a pretty unusual way). The top is 5A quilted maple. Pickups are Bareknuckle Mule/Warpig, with coil taps. Tonepros string thru body bridge and locking sperzels complete the package.
Next, my korina super-soloist. It was meant to be kind of a marriage between an ibanez S series and an alembic. This baby has a korina body with a mappa burl veneer (didn't want a solid wood top cuz I was trying to keep the weight super low). The neck is hard rock maple, with a 4A flame maple board that has green and chrome mirror vine inlays. Also 25.5 scale and 24 frets. The pickups are Dimarzios - Air Norton / Cruiser / Evo 2 (coil tapped). Tonepros string thru body and locking sperzels.
Lastly, my very first custom project. I really liked the Jackson EDS bodies, so I found a beautiful example of one and went on to have a neck handmade for it. This baby has a Schaller Floyd, Dimarzios - Cruiser / Area 61 / Steve Special (coil tapped), and locking sperzels. The neck is highly figured flame maple (stained in 3 colors), and the fretboard is cocobolo with abalone purfling and an abalone eye of Ra at the 12th fret.
Besides these, I also have a Carvin Ultra V that I love, an Agile HEA-65 acoustic-electric, and an SX tele that's modded. Nice to be here, and hope to share a lota guitar and amp knowledge with all of you!
