    Is it cheating that a saw a picture from, what I imagine is part II?
    I love the metal flake and the PRS is a great vehicle for some of that bass boat size sparkle!
    Thanks for all your kind words brotherman, looking forward to seeing the next one.

    Watching the Crimson Guitar build guitars on their channel is utterly fascinating. What I love is that they put a lot of thought into their builds, they don't just make something that is pretty. Their Cyberpunk 2077 guitar is pretty awesome.

    Your mention of the 'finish' people gave me pause for thought: I recently daydreamed about an outrageous finish/paintjob for an ES-style guitar being a totally, full-on, Grateful Dead-tiedye (white undercoat, total rainbow tiedye!), but now the added glitz of the colors being done in their metallic glitter!
    Waddya think o' that?!

    I think Ben's guitar needs some repair... He cut it to ribbons.
    Jimmy DiResta threw his in the fire.
    Brad finished his guitar and said "Nope! Doing it again"
    Big D sliced the body, chambered it and put a flamed top & bottom on it. Can you say "Tonecaster"?
    Tamar did a fantastic top on hers. That's a woman who knows power tools!
    No surprise that Dan made a bass! "It's all about the bass".
    Texas Toast (a.k.a. 'Wonderbread Guitars') made a Cerberos - triple neck masterpiece.
    The others on the "unofficial" builds are looking amazing as well. I think some of them may outshine the main builds.

    Lately I've been building guitars out of zebrano, maple, wenge and ayous. Zebrano smells like wet dog, wenge smells like cocoa, ayous smells sweet and almost flowery! Funny how they all have a very distinctive smell. I work mahogany and sapele regularly but they just smell "woody" to me. Like maple, there is nothing distinctive to the smell.

    Don't be down on your chances Phil.
    They invited you for a reason - your skillset is different, sure - but NOT less.
    Not by a long shot.
    Most people could not do what the others are doing/have done.
    You're showing people what is more easily achievable - knowledge that can be used to sharpen ANY kit.
    How to make parts work together in harmony.
    Also a different take in ways like the flake paint job.
    I watch many of the entrants - because they all bring something different to the table.
    I watch you for the same reason.

      Seriously... if anyone beats Ben it’s a travesty!! His guitar is amazing!! The only thing working against him is that anyone who is familiar with his previous work may have already been conditioned to the amazingness of his creations... if anyone else built what Ben has built the whole of the RUclips guitar community would be going totally crazy over it, but with Ben this kind of thing has come to be expected... Phil is exactly right about that, but I still believe Ben wins.

    For what it’s worth, my ranking in terms of preference to own personally…
    Guns N Guitars - that headstock!! And nice wave!
    …tied with 3x3 Custom - super clean straightforward build. Nice shape and top!
    Crimson - outlandish awesome, but I’d never go on stage with it.
    Texas Toast - amazing look, but breaks your back.
    Know Your Gear - ? haven’t seen final, but I like the PRS shape and expect a great finish
    Big D - I don’t do Teles, nice finish, but I’m not into chevron flames either.
    Angove - popping grain!, but shape hmm. And pickguards don’t connect smoothly.
    Diresta - maybe with a smooth gloss finish and the original burnt look underneath. How heavy is that thing anyways?
