Here is some neck and body parts I designed and modeled and machined on a Probiotics Fireball CNC router.

Beautiful. You have a mastery of a machine that can be programmed to make otherwise improbable designs. The ability to tailor it to an individual user should offer a worthwhile retail niche. well... once people are able to play for an audience that is...

I don’t know much about this but was interested as to how you get that finish . It doesn’t look like the actual wood grain , and I like how you did the fading .
Btw do you have a first name that your willingly share ?

The big question is how does it play? They are beautiful and if they play well, I can see making custom designs for up and coming guitarists. I thought the neck on electric guitars usually had a steel rod to keep it from warping? Is that true?

And, by the way, welcome to the Forum and thanks for sharing the sequence of production. Very interesting. Guitars require a great finish and I'd love to know more about how you got that fantastic look.

All very nice, especially the quilted body in the first shot. What wood is that? I'm with Rick, add your first name to your profile to clear the N/a in the side panel and so we'll know what to call you.

I suspect it’s Rod, but it would still be nice if it was updated in profile .
Especially seeing as he’s one of the family now

looks like Quilted Big Leaf Maple...appears to be a veneered top.

That's what it looks like to me, as well, Bill. Just curious; it's nice.

Cool! Did you round the back of the neck with the CNC, or by hand?

Hi Jake - head over to the introduction area and tell us a little about yourself.

"'Just' some Guitar stuff" he says. Snort - that is beautiful (all of it).
