Hahaha... it seems so. Anyways, a gentle reminder, nominations must be Projected in Singapore. Custom order guitars engineered in sg built by master craftsmen considered Pro category already LOL.

Wah... pressure... Must find sponsor for this month winner already...

 

[faekildare]

My ibanez parts are MIJ. The rest.. done in singapore. Including oiling, sanding, fitting, pick up wiring and etc ^^. As usual, pick up and setup done by arguably the best guy to do the job, BEEZ!!

 

[cruxgod]

[junkiemanxl]

Great stuff on the DIY's!

Looking for sponsors?
I'll chip in if it means anything.

I'm sponsoring a new and unused All Parts 52 tele 5 hole black pickguard that i bought not too long ago. Plastic laminate still on. Spanking new! Great for a new tele project.

Maybe more ppl can chip in on the sponsorship goodies and make it more attractive.

 

[wyldeboon]

[obzervr]

Wah. very good, got volunteers already... wyldeboon and junkiemanxl can become this month's commentator and Veto King! actually very simple one, just special mention to deserving projects outstanding on aesthetics or on technical challenge. So this month eieio and fgl can both participate.
