Whats New Pussycat - Feline Guitars Updates thread.

Those straps look awesome. I'll be grabbing some I think

We've been busy completing a baritone explorer for one of our customers

27" scale length - shape based on an ESP custom shop Baritone that the player owns

Tuned like the lower 6 of a 7 string but with the lowB dropped to an A

Pickups are EMG 57 & 66

Hardware is TonePros and Sperzel (special tuner hole size to take the low string)

We used Luminlay side markers - these can be activated with a special UV torch and glow for an hour or more

Excuse the dust on the pic below - photos were a bit rushed as the new owner was uber keen to grab the guitar and take her home

That is a seriously sexy Explorer.  Feline seem to have some really great quality stocks of Mahogany as well.

Very nice!

I'm not a seven string player but that is one cool mother of a geetar.

You don't need to be - it's only got 6 strings - merely a longer scale length

Wherever did I get seven strings from? Only trouble is now I want it.

When the time comes for an explorer I'm becoming ever more sure it'll be a 76-style from Feline.

That's gorgeous mate ... I adore Explorers

First photo sighting of the prototype Lion for the 25th anniversary series we're doing for next year

We're also making a flat top Lion - essentially a Lion cub deluxe, but with a skinny neck as it will be a rather special 5 string guitar for a Banjo player who wants to dabble in guitar playing in open tunings.

ok, I'm officially bowled over. That is stunning , and those inlays..... WOW

OilCityPickups

Brilliant work again Jonathan, that top is eye popping!

hubobulous

Needs a trem, pickup selector beneath the pickups and led fingerboard markers ;-)

An opinion rather than a criticism, but I think I'd like those inlays better if they were the other way up.

I'll be interested to hear more about the 25th Anniversaries.

 That is bite the back of your hand gorgeous. Someone will be very very lucky indeed

Oh sweet lord! I'm never normally one for highly flamed or quilted tops. I find they don't suit me I just look like I've stolen orbit that is jaw dropping! What colours are you thinking for it? Amber burst or maybe just clear coat?
I like the inlays. They're unique and classy. Fine work @felineguitars

Goodness Bo ... I can see your piggy bank running from the hammer! Soooooo tempting isn't it?

Mine's hidden :-)

I've promised myself a feline Lion. That is just beautiful! The problem is Ash @theguitarweasel is that my piggy bank is an agile speedy swine currently due to him not being weighed down by disposable income!
