    It looks fantastic! I find ebony to be a huge pain to work with, then this dude carves an entire neck out of the stuff! You are a madman.

    Phukin gorgeous, dude. The carved heal is such a classy touch.

      Thanks man! When I first did it I thought it would feel funny or unusual in the palm of your hand… but it doesn’t. It actually feels really comfortable. It’s a lot of extra steps - but the end result makes it worth it. 🤘

    • @BoneheadGuitars

      I've always thought that about the huge honkin square nightmare on Fenders, but it really isn't an issue. Seeing yours completed it immediately looked comfy.

    A solid ebony neck is so cool. I’ve been following your instagram - this guitar is going to be awesome. Looking forward to the next vid!

      @shockthefox  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks man! I always wanted to try an ebony neck - because you just done see it - probably for many reasons… next vid is “in the can” as they say. I just have to find the time to edit it. 🤘

    Kept expecting the music to turn into the theme from the Deer Hunter.

    I love that super dark wood. Special after you wet it to show grain and shine. I agree with @Robert R that inlay is sick. Are you not worried about the ebony dust? I thought is was highly toxic to breathe?

    • @shockthefox
      @shockthefox  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you! I’m not allergic to ebony. And when I’m sawing it I mask up. Cocobolo on the other hand, forget about it. 😆

    • @borgonianevolution
      @borgonianevolution ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@shockthefox I just noticed you blowing it off as you filed. I was thinking toxic more in your lungs and blood stream then skin allergies. Not that its any of my business what people do but I live with injuries and constant pain and don't wish that on anyone. So if I can get people to think about things more it may keep someone down the road from issues.

  • @ChrisFranklyn

    Wow. I'd never thought to do the neck in sections like that to keep it from moving around so much, was ebony hard to work with?

    • @shockthefox
      @shockthefox  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Chisels have to be sharp, but it’s so dense that it polishes up really smooth. It wasn’t “chippy” if that makes sense. Thanks man!🤘

    I really like the neck head stock design and your logo inlay on the head stock It's going to be a really nice looking guitar once you finish it.
