    My Talented Dad!!

    Maybe you've seen me post mentioning how my Dad is a talented woodworker with one hell of a nice shop and ALL the toys...well, I bought some Mahagony and some hardware, and three weeks later, this emerges...a Geetar toolbox, with a lower cabinet for whatever, including a file drawer!






    This thing is beautiful...and handy!!!

    Now I just gotta get him to make a few bodies and necks...he's expressed interest!

                  I personally do not care how it was built as long as it is a good playing/sounding instrument.

                    Very nice. Make sure you pack it well on your cross country trip.

                        That's awesome!!!! [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img] Now I could use a nice oiled mahogany Strat body that'll fit a Floyd and my H/S SD pickguard. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

                          Heh...yeah, so do I, Toejam! Get in line!

                          Sully, I'd have to mount a Custom in it somewhere and wire it up, but I'd bet it would sound great!

                          He does nice work...to say the least. He's funny though...building the thing is his entire focus. When it's done, he wants it out of his sight! All he see's are the screw-ups and things he wishes he did differently...just like a musician!

                            Nice wood, and great work by your pops.
