I wasn't expecting all that body contouring.  Very interesting...

Never mind interesting, it's more comfortable and practical, anyone can order with or without, this is my vision of a good modern les Paul, it's still got the neck and fret scale of a vintage guitar

I approve wholeheartedly!  Even more looking forward to seeing how it turns out now.

Wow! Just wow. That is gorgeous! Wow.

It's been a while but it's done, almost, if I could stop playing the damn thing I need to make a pickguard and truss rod cover, I'm very happy with how this turned out for a model idea I wanted to make as a modern les Paul type
It's 7.4lb and bloody lovely to play with a nice chunky vintage carve neck, I really like the top loading bridge too

That's lovely Darren. A great colour choice and I like the burst on the back of the neck. 

Corvus

Cheers Steve, it is my vision of a modern les Paul and it'll be a while before I pick another guitar up, god it's comfortable, burst was a nod to the old Gibson's
