Jaden Rose Guitars - The Thread of Stuff and Things and Sometimes Guitars.

Jaden

Hi all, as mentioned somewhere else by @digitalscream I am often to be found out and about crashing dirtbikes, riding quads, playing rugby, mountain biking and generally looking around for my next injury.

when im not doing that stuff I can be found in my workshop making guitars.

there are loads of pictures to be found on facebook of the cutout nicely presented pictures of finished guitars but in this thread ill get some works in progress posted as well as pics of the workshop and what happens when I close the doors

enjoy, discuss

this is the last thing I made just because I wanted to rather than it being a customer order..

Oooo....the headstock looks even better than I thought it would

By the way, I fixed the broken images up there ^^ (looked like an embed fail from PhotoBucket). Just one of the many services we provide over here

That's very nice Jaden. ^^ Loving the finish.

 

Sadly my rugby days are over, mostly cos my body is borked.

Pretty much what happened over on Rob Chapman's forum. I thought I was joining an exclusive club when I got mine, now every bugger's got one

yea,
DO read the stuff on their site and make sure you have studied the drawings
DONT - well not sure really, its a pretty easy install.

Awesome guitars! 

The bike video looks like fun as well, I'd love a quad bike for that stuff.

What a good idea this thread is Jaden - as you can keep adding to it now and keep updates flowing  and we can all easily look back and see previous updates we may have missed.

It also eliminates the need for multiple threads which can be harder to find them all if you are looking for something you read a while back.

I may have to do something similar myself

Great idea Jonathan. Would love to see a Feline thread.

ooh i was going to ask about Evertune, does the extra routing mean an upcharge in addition to the price of the unit or is no worse than doing a Floyd ?

no extra cost for the routing but.... the bridge itself is very expensive, somewhere (depending on exchange rate) in the region of £350-400

more weekend-y type stuff...
this enduro race track is in development, pretty soon you'll be able to come here and hire a bike to cane around it

At the risk of blinding myself, is there any chance of a proper picture of the pink thing with the fake f-hole?
