    sick thread, I love the knot in in the wood below the switches. Looking forward to watching this come together.

    I've never done a build of mine own but I've helped a few friends in the past. Seems to be pretty satisfying, haha.

    set, there's a famous guitar shop here in NYC called Carmine Street Guitars which also makes custom guitars under the name Kelly. He makes them from hundred year+ reclaimed wood from around city. I've been told he just jacks it from demolition sites. Just thought you'd find that interesting. It's a dream of mine to own one but will never happen.

    • Wood reclamation from old Victorian homes is a fairly big business over here in Blighty - shit's cured and settled and doesn't budge once cut.detritus
    • not to mention churches. i once did a shop interior fashioned from old pew wood. came up right lovely.hans_glib
    • Cheers caterpus. Just looking at the Kelly guitars...they look greatset
