Dude, I'm glad you've ended up on your feet. And don't apologize for taking time for yourself. You need to be your first priority.

So glad to hear about the new place! Though I always knew you had a whole load on before, I had no idea you were juggling it all with roommates or having to work in your kitchen! Huge respect - and so glad to hear you now have a dedicated space.

Quite honestly, the time and efficiency savings you'll make as a result of this should go a long way towards carving out that all important time to decompress and unwind. I'm just so glad you found somewhere that works for you, and those Space Cadets are looking fantastic too. Your brand has really great potential and although you always helped others achieve their dreams, I think you've also got a definite design language of your own that comes through in what you do.

I meant to say how much I love that light grey from a few pages back. That is freaking brilliant! It would fit in great with other light pastel-ish colors.

Howdy Gang!!1

Firstly, thank you guys for all the encouraging messages and comments regarding the move and the other stuff from my last post. Really feels great to know I have such a tight knit community who is rooting for me :)

Being super insanely busy is becoming the norm around here, not that I'm complaining! The completed builds from this weeks post are some of my favorites I've completed to date, i hope you guys love them!!

First up, finished up the very first Feelgood "Playboy." Playboy is a 6 string 24" scale guitar with a body shape inspired by the elusive and rare Fender Bass V. Fitted with 2 Fender AR XII pickups and a Dynamic Vibrato, its really just a slightly quirkier mustang. But I guess the public agreed this was a cool design because this one sold within a day of posting! Color is basically an Ocean Turquoise / Light Sherwood Green type code. Definitely one I'm going to need to revisit!

Next up, another Feelgood original model, Space Cadet #3. This one is sprayed in Bright LPB and fitted with a D&B vintage spec neck, handwound pickups, and an offset vibrato. Its pictured next to its Shell Pink brother, #1, which is still hanging around here until it finds a new home. They look so cute together :-*

Finishing off the completed builds for this post, we have a custom ordered Telemaster in Avocado Gold nitro. Spec'd out to the customers liking, the only thing that isnt in its 'final form" is the pickguard, which was changed to single ply black to better match the body paint. Still even with the tort, this thing looks SWEET!

Got some pics back of Zach's custom Guitar Form SG-3!! Bright LPB is always a winning color. So sick to see this one altogether!

As always, here are a few teasers for what to expect in coming weeks (not everything is pictured, just what i remembered to snap some pics of)

Thanks for looking as always :-) hope you guys are staying cool out there in offsetland :-*

That Playboy is a full-on 10/10 from me. That's the kind of unique and kickass Offset I'd have killed for most of my life. I'd still want one now, I just finally got to the point in my life where I legitimately have too many guitars, so it's easier to control the GAS.

Agreed! I am very tempted to make a burgundy mist metallic one to match my burgundy mist Bass V.

Well, I mean, it kinda feels like you have to considering that you're one of the very few people who owns one. When would these two models ever meet otherwise?

Exactly! Maybe in some alternate dimension of the late 60's?
