The maple tops are really thin. They also have the lamest grain I've seen, sadly. If you're going to do flamed maple, get something with a more active flame to it. They look like photoflame.

Re: ----AWESOME CUSTOM SHOP PICS-----

It looks like he's just roughing on the bandsaw - you can see quite a space between the final shape drawn on the face of the guitar and the edge that he's cutting

Damnation Angel: When were these pictures taken? Just curious about the timing in relation to the whole Y2KV thing.

Re: ----AWESOME CUSTOM SHOP PICS-----

The CNC machines are most likely used to do the routing. That would make sense wouldn't it?

Re: ----AWESOME CUSTOM SHOP PICS-----

Yes .. in the case of the custom shop they also can do necks on those. I've seen pictures of Fender where they actually do the whole body contour on the machine. They actually use vacume chucks to hold the material down while they cut the outside
