Rock on. Make it a baritone. Make it a bass. I think he got around the issue of neck dive.

Well, it'll be a nice table top decoration. He could but one of those wheels on the bottom and make a lazy susan. Or he could tell Susan to go get a job.

I'm guessing that is a Squier body, based on what looks like laminate layers in the pickup route?
Very nice finish though. Maybe you could give us a lesson in doing it. Thanks for sharing.

Exactly which type of countertop material is this thing? Is this Granite, or Corian, or a synthetic stone product of which there are quite a few?
Great Post!

I remember an interview with Roy Buchanan where he talks about his granite guitar. He said it was heavy, but it would ring for days. I never saw a photo of it.

isn't that the synthetic contertop stuff. friend of mine makes harmonca combs out of that. it's not that heavy and it holds a thread or threaded insert fairly well. can't sound any worse than an armstrong or fender lucite body guitar...........................cool.

I think the brand name of that stuff is corriann. my bathroom vanity is made of that. you can see the resin qualities in the surfaces of the routed cavities.
it's like when you build a house for $80k and say your getting marble vanity top, it's not really marble. it's still freakin' cool!!!!!!!!!!! |
