    Who else is mad about John crushing the output jack with the weight of the guitar? 😅
    That's a pretty build however 😁

    Very nice work John, I particularly like the way you did the neck and headstock, and the sound from the neck pup is excellent - I may have to get me some of those for my next build!

    • @JohnClothier

      Thankyou! Yes that neck pickup sounds amazing doesn’t it. The bridge one is good but not as good in my opinion

    John, looks and sounds great. The headstock is really lush and I love the way the different laminates reveal themselves along the side of neck. Great job, really enjoyed watching your whole build. I did wince at you balancing the guitar on your poor jack lead though 😆

    • @JohnClothier
      @JohnClothier  3 года назад +1

      Thank you so much. I was very pleased with how the different woods all worked out on the neck. I know, the poor lead! Luckily it was just an old one.

    a little bit suprised by the bolt on neck in a les paul(ish) style guitar however the finish is beautiful, wish you the best of luck

    • @JohnClothier
      @JohnClothier  3 года назад +1

      Why is that? A great many Les Paul style guitars I have seen have bolt on necks. My reason is that it’s a lot easier to remove if the neck needs shimming for its angle. As I am quite inexperienced with luthiery I like to keep that option open lol. Thank you!

      Thank you! There is very stiff competition so I don’t expect to do well. It’s not the reason for my entry. I’m just pleased to be a part of it
