Devon Headen Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 http://img24.photobucket.com/albums/v72/ja...urstlespaul.jpg I know it's not technically a carrie, but I thought it was worth showing. kind of reminds me of the PRS faded blue jean finish. Not really the same at all, but the colors are really close. I really like it. And the fact that the wood isn't too showy is a bit different. Where did you get your wood? The 'bay?

HeavnerGuitarWorks Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 I would tell you where I got my wood, but then I'd have to kill you! Seriously, I got it on ebay. One piece is from antlersexpress (can't remember if its one word or two) and the other piece is from cook_woods. They were both more expensive than a cheap spam, but totally worth it. They are both 14" wide and 49" long. The one in the top picture is obviosly quilted maple and it's a little over 2" thick. The piece in the bottom picture is highly figured Sapelle and it's 2 5/16" thick. I'm gonna have the maple cut into 1/2" thick caps and the sapelle, I'm gonna' have 2 5/16" caps cut from. I'll use the rest to make 2 really nice looking bodies with some spalted maple caps I've got around the shop. Of course, the carrie burst will probably be on the quilted maple, but maybe not...

westhemann Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 imo the sappelle would look much better natural than it would as a carrie it has that "evil" figure and color that i love Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drak Posted June 4, 2004 Report Share Posted June 4, 2004 I completely agree w/ Wes, that wood is too fine for a carrie, and would not make the best carrie anyway. Bad choice, try again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragyn Posted June 11, 2004 Report Share Posted June 11, 2004 as I understand it though Sapelle needs to be very well sealed or the natural oils of the wood can start a number of nickle based metals to corrode. Something to think about Dragyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
litchfield Posted June 14, 2004 Report Share Posted June 14, 2004 Ed roman's done, and I dont like it much...not much burst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhoads56 Posted June 14, 2004 Report Share Posted June 14, 2004 Ok, so im working on something special at the moment, and the guitar is lending itself to being a cariburst. Is the entry still open, or did we have to pre-register?? Im not interested in the tutorial comp, but the finished guitar comp. However, im not sure if i even want to cariburst it, as it is going to be my display piece for stores and clients. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
