yeah seriously kid.

to some it may look like I've thrown my toys out of the pram but.....

the whole idea of putting pics up is to get comments whether good or bad.

let faces it we all like to hear what others think and say..

what the point of posting pictures if no one is going to say anything.

I know certain members won't say anything at all no matter how good it looks unless its their own.

I've sussed that out quite awhile ago.

many times    something  placed  in " discussions "   gets over looked ,  it only takes  4   replys  on  others to  bump  you  off  the   page  ,  some folks are  also  intimidated  in  clicking a file  links  to  look at  pics  .  (or too lazy)  ,or   are in a  rush  .  i  believe this is  why  Dan  helped you out and posted them  in  comments   for ya .

ps ... .usually ,  you  can  post  pictures   by  clicking   the  2nd icon    in the top  of the text area  you are typing in . 

you  may  also  want to  try  posting  pictures  right to  your  page  instead , and they  will  rotate  on the  front  page and be   more  visible . 

(in the picture  box  on the front  page  ,  click  (add photos "  in the  bottom  left  corner  .)

  hope that  helps .  ;-)

So is it a solid body or a hollow body? I like the way the body and headstock match!

hollow.see the body in the back ground.

the inside was cut out of a solid piece.

I know its not perfect it its the best so far.

the orange skull is my trade mark if you like.

not that I intend to sell them as a business but sell one now and again just to help pay for my hobby.

there's too many sellers out there anyway.

also further in the back ground you'll see ovation leave's ..that's my next project.

i call these a 'thinline', what Fender called it, although Rickenbacker and Gibson (among others) have also done this type of thing.

Nice guitar John.

What brand rubbing compound did you use? (I am in the process of finishing a varnished telecaster body and was going to leave it with a dull finish but like the shine you have on your guitar).

I think the initial lack of comments are due to the decreased traffic the forums are getting at the moment (sunny weather so people out building rather than looking at the www, the site facelift makes it a bit harder to navigate (I cannot use the tabs with my windows phone so don't look at the site until late evening), Facebook CBG group has got busier to name a few examples.

Regards,
David L
