All looking great Boo. I bet you could turn anything into a guitar. 

@russ Cheers! That’s the plan really, I’m interested in using anything and everything into a guitar. I’m going to stay clear of expensive, highly figured woods for a while, I want to experiment.

More layers of Tru Oil for the back of this Barncaster. I’m juggling quite a few jobs today.

Nice work @boo.

 

I doubt your customer will ever see another like it ...

(which is most definitely a positive in my book!)

@tv101 Thank you Tony, I do like to be different and/or unique if I can. I know this one is a Tele type shape but I will be trying different shapes from now on. I do like the rough (semi rough) look of these Barncasters, they always come out better than I expect them to.
