Location: Upper Left USA | A couple of projects of course... thought I'd share.
The Dread-Not Adamas has taken a playable shape
And this surprise was reletively cheap. A "Cozart" 12 string "Tele" copy. I got the action right, just need to shave off some of the manly neck and shield the pups.
You know... I'm really glad that Fender bought out Ovation. What a creative Company! |

Got the OP Pro Studio with XLR mounted in there. To me it sounds right up there with the other O's and plenty of thump and sustain (so I didn't just waste more lumber).
Had some Sunshine here as well so...
Still need to finish the binding and the Bowl finish but its nice to have it working. |

I can lend you the 150-watt binding-bender, if need be. Are you binding the surfboards, too? |

I'm not much on commision, too much pressure and it feels like work...
But tell me what you had in mind. |
