GuitarMaster 3 questions...1) are u going to give the neck and headstock a glossy finish?2) How much in total (parts, to get it painted, ect.) did it cost?3) Did you get instructions to make it or do you know alot about crafting guitars?

The price i paid Cross for the making the body etc is between himself and I,use Warmouth pricing as an indication.3.Cross builds guitars, he also built the Mumblystang......
CROSS That way I see it. The guitar has a lifespan of 100+ years. The more time I spend on building, the better the quality.The neck is gloss. I tried to capture the shine in the photo, but I'm having camera troubles.
Dunxy Rome wasnt built in a day.......I just got some bad news before, painter has gone on holiday, so im looking at another 3 weeks before i see the painted body ☹ So yet again the completion date moves further away....... Oh well gives me time to pimp out my vintage jap strat i aquired recently.
