Sorry, maybe picky but it was the very first thing I noticed.

A British builder who has been at guitar shows so has anyone here played one?
Stone Wolf primarily cater for the Avenged Sevenfold & Dream Theatre type crowds, so thats why their hardware is what it is, and the general superstrat leanings.
Agree with @ICBM regarding the detailing for the forward strap button. I’d attribute that as a one off, and if brought to their attention, I’m pretty sure they’d take the criticism in board, and not repeat it. Remember, every one of their guitars is different, even if they run with a few standard shapes. The wood-resin thing is their USP.
Apart from that though, the rest of it looks amazing.
How would resin fare regarding tone though?
Pauls Private Stock Resin coming to a Guitar Shop near you soon.....................looks great tho'
Stonewolf are using burls - very unstable pieces of wood with few structural properties... But once set in acrylic they will be everything Theresa May claims.
Its an inconsistent natural material massively enhanced by a consistent artificial one... tonally, it will be much nicer than one made out of a similar piece of untreated burl

How would the tone of resin actually compare to something like maple, mahogany or alder though?
Would it only be advisable on a "shred machine" with hot modern pickups?
I imagine these sound similar to other acrylic based guitars like the Dan Armstrong Lucite models, depends how much the acrylic impregnates the wood.. How does it compare to other woods? well for one thing its a lot more predictable.
