Hi All.

This is the first of what I hope will be a regular look into whats going on in the workshop.

This guitar I built a few months ago but had to ship it before I had chance to photograph is properly.

It was quite an unusual instrument so I thought it was worth a mention here.

Firstly, no controls and only one pickup - a single coil q - tuner ( www.q-tuner.com ) fitted from the back of the guitar.

The body and neck are both maple ( flamed maple board ), the body is stained black rather than lacquered or painted which preserves the wood figuring and gives a look to the body not unlike black leather.
