All:
Here's an update on the guitar generator. Instead of posting progress as I finished a new item, I decided to wait until things were almost ready and unveil the whole lot at once.
I have added some changes to exisiting features, and added three new body shapes. Here's a summary.
Inlays: Added Iommi Crosses and Iron Crosses. Also added a "12th fret only" option for all inlays. And don't forget the controversial "custom inlay color" option. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]
Tuners: Added LSRs.
Bridges: Added Non-Recessed Floyds and Kahler Pros.
Pickups: Added "wide route" duncan single coils. Also made pickup selection more flexible when a 24 fret neck is selected (HSS & HSH now doable with 24 fret neck).
Knobs and Switches: I redesigned the interface. Call it a matter of personal pride, but I hated the old interface. You software designers out there know what I mean.
Shapes:
Soloist:

Since Soloists don't have bevels or pinstripes, I added a feature called "stencils" whereby you select a stencil (Bengal, Bullseye, or Rising Sun), and then tweek its color. Above you see a Bengal stencil set to blue.
Warriors:

I call this one the "Holy Warrior".
Kellys:

This is the second version of the guitar generator. Version three will add more shapes, and make the stencil option available to the other shapes, along with some other nice additions.
Don't ask when this latest version will be posted; it will happen soon enough. All good things take time, but I wanted to at least show you what you were waiting for.
