Souler - VG No. 0026
The Chechen wood that I had used previously on the "Natural Beauty" build was so stunning, I decided to make the first single-cut with the same wood! This guitar was headed to stock, but a fan on Facebook decided to "Take over" the build. This has happened a couple times before. I post pics daily on social media and the people who are watching the goods there sometimes swipe up these builds in progress. This was also my first build with a wood binding, which really pops on this guitar. I originally was going to use the binding just on the body, then realized it would look awesome on the fingerboard as well. Well, one thing led to another and I went for it on the headstock too. The tones that come out of this guitar are incredible and I MUST make one for the studio as a demo!
