Hmmm!
Interesting...

The 'curl' of the symbol guitar: shouldn't it be a tad thinner and a wider circle?
Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry.

So, when you're finished, you'll have actually replicated working guitars?

If so, that's pretty amazing, and you should try designing your own and selling those as specialty guiltars. It just seems amazing to me.

Okay, I'll try to answer all ur questions! First off, thanks for all the compliments and support...I really appreciate it. Secondly, what u see done in these pics was literally done in two days! So now that I've had some time to examine more photos I have made more adjustments to different parts of the guitars. The first Clouds guitars I did were done using maple...the symbol and model c are made out of poplar...just experimenting with different woods to see which works the best for me!

These are only full sized models of the real thing that will actually have real bridges, tone and volume knobs, input jack, 3-way selector all in gold.
