HI WHAT?

New member
These are 2 guitars that I customized recently.The 6 string started out life as a 60,s Kent setneck.I bought it off of Ebay for $15 for just the body and neck and infilled all the routes with mahogany.I then carved the dragon into the body and leveled all of the body down.Cool body but a terrible player.The bass was a 70,s ? Onyx with a sunburst given to me by a friend.this one is in the process of being completed with a few small details to attend to.I had to make a custom copper pickguard to suit the carving.It is painted with a high dollar antique white lacquer and then a black glaze was added to highlight the dragon skull.Both were challenging because of their origional body construction and layout but now I am running my own bodies for more control.Thanks for looking I hope you enjoy them.Rich

Sweet looks. Have you strung up the bass yet to see if it plays well?
