This guitar was built to be auctioned off next month at a silent auction for my company’s charitable foundation at our internal conference in early December.
i can’t take credit for the illustration, i collaborated with a colleague who’s an incredible illustrator and he drew this specifically for this guitar.
I love the contrast and the color
This is a beauty. I am sure it will be prized by the winner of the auction.
I love the weathered look! It goes great with the engraving!
the body was already “road worn.” it was an old project guitar body from a friend who passed away a few years ago. his wife gave me the body/neck to do whatever i wanted with it. it’s got some chipping around the edges and the finish is aged a bit, so it seemed the perfect guitar to do some “relicing” with.
That turned out great! How long did the engrave take?
i think it was just over 2 hours in two parts.
That’s not bad at all! I hope it gets a huge bid!
Nothing less than stunning…the illustrators work and your thought and effort to learn how to put it on there.
That is just amazing. Fantastic job!
I salute you and the artist. May your friend’s memory bring you peace. Kudos to his wife.
that turned out awesome!
I’m just imagining someone at a future show screaming “release The Kraken!”
That is fantastic!
Stunning
This may be your coolest one yet! I’m sure it will bring in a tidy sum.
Wow! Nice work!
Very nice! Love seeing your guitars!
It’s gorgeous!
Beautifully done!
