Swept Wing Obsession Continues

[niksureal]

I finally built my dream Swept Wing. All the specs and finish I think are perfect for this type of guitar. I think I am done building this shape now.

This build is based on this guitar, which I believe to be one of the prototypes.


And mine...










The Swept Wing family

Find out who today's equivalent of Bo Diddley is, get them playing one, and you'll have orders flowing in in no time.

I can definitely see a '50s swamp rocker with a Betty Page fringe who wishes she'd been around when The Cramps were last hiring, or some dyed-in-the-wool garage psychedelicists with pudding-bowl hairdos and oblong granny specs playing something like this too.

That's super rad! Looks much better than the original prototype. Are these GFS Surf 90s? They are a perfect match visually. I still don't know how they sound. Should I order a set for my Les Paul?

[MayTheFuzzBeWithYou]

That looks incredible!
Love the Surf90s tone and they just look amazing in here!

Gorgeous. I agree that the surf 90's are visually the perfect match for this guitar.
