That looks great! I have seen the angled frets on many 8-10 string basses but never a guitar. Quite unique and very cool!

Great build.
Thats a sweet looking axe.
Remembering from years back , a builder was doing necks with the "fan fret" system.
The claims were this arragment was to take any inntonation issues totally out.
Is this a truth?

Wow, looks like you covered all your bases in planning that guitar out. Superb job! Everything in the pics looks like you paid amazing attention to detail. down to the angle of the pickup and the polepieces lining up with the strings. I have 4 rosewood neck guitars (selling one though and I'll need another). Would love for a rosewood neck 7-String.

Are those frets at an angle??

That is what fanned-fret is. It allows you to have a longer scale at the base side to use thinner strings and get higher tension which also helps with intonation on down tuning, while being able to retain a shorter scale on the treble side to prevent possible shrillness or having too much tension.
