I'm building a RR (pics).

[Ben Johnson]

It's my first build, but I think it's going pretty well so far. I'll put up more pics as the work progresses.




Nice flame on the neck.

My sad "template"




And the family shot.

[scotty]

I love that family shot.

[Special-K]

Do you maybe want to sell the Yellow RR Professional?... :P

Great work and keep us fed with new pics every once and a while!

[DaveC]

Yes, it is a nice flame.
Are the wings Alder or Mahogany?

[Ben Johnson]

Do you maybe want to sell the middle one(Yellowe RR) ...(RR Professional) ... ;D????

Hmmm....well, not right now since it's my template! Besides, I like the inverted Wildchid guitar!

(and you KNOW you need 24 frets anyway...)

Alder. I stick to what I'm familiar with.

Nah, not really...
On have 22 frets on my RR-3 and I don`t miss those two frets
that often...

Will you be making fretboard yourself too? Where did you get those MOP inlays? What are the woods you're using?

[Davey]

i dare you to leave it like this!!!!

[Ben Johnson]

It's an ebony fretboard from Stewmac.com, the MOP sharkfins were from Luthiersupply.com. I had to cut the inlay slots myself.

:ROTF::ROTF::ROTF::ROTF::ROTF::ROTF::ROTF:

Oh, I'm tempted!

It probably weighs about 30 pounds right now though!

[Davey]

set it up for lap steel HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[jackson1]

Cool project!

But you shouldn't wire the pickup to the tremolo. Not yet.

I don't think Randy would approve of that!

Ha! I guess the wire just curled up to make it look like they were connected.

Where did you get the body woods?Are they aged?
