Thanks! This is more or less a PRS headstock, the neck shape is by hand. The F holes are cut by hand. The finish is many colored coats of shellac and topped with spray lacquer. Wet sanded to 1500 grit and then rubbed out with compound...It is amazing how quick you can go from bare wood to a high gloss.
Seasick Steve is very cool...we are trying to get him back in the states for a tour.. If you like fooling around, check out www.cigarboxnation.com for other hand made guitars... The six strings are a pain for me to make, seems to take me forever...that said, I do make them to order. This one is going to Nashville to a side man.. see signature below to contact me about other builds..herb |
