Build #2 complete!

Was just putting the finishing touches on my second build. Did a Blackmachine style headstock and a superstrat style body.

Black limba body

Maple and walnut neck

Beli fretboard and headstock overlay (similar to zebra wood. I had never heard of it before but figured I’d give it a try)

Finished with Tru-oil.

Bridge, tuners, pickups are all Guyker. I’m still learning and didn’t want to make huge investments in things I can upgrade later if needed.

It plays really well, which exceeded my expectations!

Made a LOT of mistakes but the good news is they were different mistakes than the ones I made on my first build, so… progress?
