Stunning guitar! Wow. 🏅👍 I think the iceberg sunburst you painted it is far nicer than that first green stain test. 🤘

yeah, that didn't quite turn out as planned, hence me spraying over it :D

Beautiful build dude. Have you tried using fixtures? I used to machine my bodies like you did in this video, leaving tabs and flipping half way but sometimes I ended up having problems with the position of the stock shifting a bit, resulting in lots of sanding to save the part. Now I cut all the way through and place it in a fixture that I butt up against a fence, then use edge finding on the corner of the fixture. It took me a while to build it but if you're building the same stuff a lot it ends up saving way more than it costs.

I have thought of doing something like this, though my builds tend to all be a tiny bit different so I never implemented it. I have since switched to leaving some stock to leave on the top when I do the perimeter and then cut all the way through from the bottom (with no tabs but masking tape and superglue to hold the body), followed by a full depth cleanup pass to eliminate any minor misalignment.

its a good tool that pivoting on on the drill press to press the metal strips in, good build and music

@DarkArtGuitars 4 ай бұрын

Yes, just maybe not good for the drill press, I ended up breaking it on a different neck... Maybe use it in an arbor press as intended.

@@DarkArtGuitarswell leasons learned, i hope the break did not set you back to much

@DarkArtGuitars 4 ай бұрын

Luckily it just ripped out the threads in the casting, and there was enough room behind it to use a nut and reattach it that way with a longer bolt.@@enricodesign619

Request for making a Steinberger GM4T guitar

@DarkArtGuitars 4 ай бұрын

I can certainly build something similar to a GM4T, shoot me an email or IG DM if you're interested in commissioning one.

@madeofnapalm 4 ай бұрын

Frosty! 😁 Did you make 2 necks?

@DarkArtGuitars 4 ай бұрын

The second one was for a different build I built at the same time. It's the black magic build you can see on my instagram and website

@ryanmikel7602 4 ай бұрын

Do you have contact details? Id be interested in knowing your pricing for making something similar, that is if you take orders? Love the work dude, you get better with each one you make

@DarkArtGuitars 4 ай бұрын

Yes, I do take orders. You can contact me by email: guitar@darkartguitars.com or by DM on Instagram @DarkArtGuitars
