It looks awesome. Loving the choice of woods. Headstock looks like a METAL version of the PRS headstock. Very nice!

That is a very nice build! I always wanted to build my own from scratch, but lack of tools always deterred that. I always settled for using an already cut and routed body with and aftermarket neck as my base.
You definitely have some skill and imagination that's for sure. I love your choice of woods and body shape also. That is going to look very nice, and probably sound very sweet also.
What type of finish are you going to use for the body? Are you putting a logo on the headstock also?
Can't wait to see more photo's of this build up.'Howling in shadows

You have some passion and talent for that.
Nice combo.
Work it.
