Re: Cross Guitars - projects and restorations
Also, I'm still playing around with designs.
I made the headstock a bit smaller.
I printed out the last one to get an idea of the scale and it seemed massive so I quite like this one.
Ooh. Actually works quite well with a "swoosh"

I like the swoosh. But in my opinion for which you didn't ask ( ), carved headstock seems to be every boutique-builder's gimmick right now. They're all over my Instagram, the trend is raising...CROSS_guitars wrote: ↑Wed May 12, 2021 7:03 amAlso, I'm still playing around with designs.

Noted.
I don't tend to care what other builders are doing.
It does kind of have a bit of a Fano vibe, which is cool.

Re: Cross Guitars - projects and restorations
I reckon this headstock design will work well on this body.

Re: Cross Guitars - projects and restorations
Guild. Oh yeah! That's a good comparison.
Here's another design I've been working on for ages.
Will probably build this one day.
Would look cool with one of those Goldo tremolos.

Looking forward to seeing it come to life.
