Trent Guitars

Quirky shape,but not for me personally. I'd have to have something rounded off or I'd be having nightmares.

Another solid day assembling the guitars,

this time it’s something unusual - junior!

TADodger

I like that a lot.

Yellow is gorgeous. Any plans for different fretboard radii (e.g. 9 or 10")? Or bursts?

Definitely interested in future pickup configs.

The pink one is actually in 7.25" and I can do them in 9.5" too if it's preferred,

Bursts are on the R&D landscape for me at the moment!

Pickup configs I can actually do already, I have some interesting builds coming up with alternative combos.

Just wanted to say I received my pink Model 1 today and yep. Banging. I'll be doing a ngd post for the Trent tomorrow with more pics and stuff. 

For now though, here's my rather expensive ngd photo.

That’s a winner for me!

Colour, single P90, win!

That's a gorgeous looking combo there! I'm really looking forward to your NGD post to hear your thoughts on the Trent.

Exceptionally/unfashionably late to the party.

I have just spent a very lovely sixty minutes reading all the @TrentGuitars thread/posts from scratch. The sun is shining and how great to see such beautiful things.

I am ashamedly stuck in a Fender rut, and also quite sceptical about ‘crafted’ guitars - as I like assembly line and machine made concepts (though dislike how manufacturers can then cheapen the concept with crap components and finish).

Was recently wondering about trying a St Vincent but couldn’t get it together - however  these look pretty darn spot on.

Loving the colours and styling. Did want to ask about typical weights - under 8lbs ???

But most of all - the (very user friendly) website actually acknowledges shoegazing - that has blown me away !!

Excellent stuff - congratulations, keep up the good work, and wonderful comms !!

Thank you so much @SPECTRUM001 ;

Appreciate all the comments, they are excellent to hear!

Weight wise it really depends on the blank, I can get them at about 7.5lb with a lightweight blank and around 8.5lb with something more substantial, each has their character to them.

Any further questions you might have feel free to shoot me a PM

Beautiful clean tone

Without the string noise being louder than the amp

My phone's a bellend and limits the sound as soon as it hears noise and it's been doing my tits in all afternoon as @TrentGuitars can verify ha
