Bones and Skulls

[SandyRavage]

Hi Guys,

With Quarantine being a thing and our entire shop down for the time being I am trying to think of fun creative projects and sharpen my skills.

First off; These are not currently for sale and they probably never will be. This is insane amounts of machine time for us to do correctly, and two flips on our 5 axis mill. its pretty significant financial investment for me to knock one of these out and just not sure who in 2020 would want to pony up the cash for a unfinished replica guitar body.

Apologies for the size these things look huge.....

I always loved the original Frog and its crudeness but thought it would be super cool to make it a bit more modern aesthetically.

Let me know your thoughts! I'm finishing the programming this week or so for our Laguna and probably do a few test runs in MDF to make sure there aren't too many weird things going on.

Yep. Two monster players who deserve every accolade possible. Hell, George is still putting out good material in his 60s!
Amazing.

I was always partial to this one. You should make a replica of this:

Got to admit one of those in black and chrome would be insanely cool

That’s a hell of an idea.... we have an Alsa Chrome sprayer it just doesn’t hold up to wear without an insane clear coat though.

I remember the first time I read a post about that smiley skull pos....there was a link to the eBay listing. Spit out my coffee I was laughing so hard...

Hmmm silver metal flake instead of chrome? No massive clear and would still be pretty cool
