Saw these on a FB page earlier - appreciate it's an acceptable method and they're built to a price.... but its all a bit rough, innit:

    No worse than a Gibson :).

    They look rougher than they actually are because the top surfaces of the neck and body have been ripped up by taking the fingerboard off.

    Yeah, they may actually be a better fit than many gibsons.

    I don't like the notch on the top one though, but can see why it lets them get a good fit with a lot less hassle

    I’m sure it would be aesthetically more pleasing from the custom shop  ;)

    I did talk about the Gibson method vs that  offset notched tenon design a bit here.

    I went for an offset tenon, without the notch, and explain my reasons why
