Flame Guitars at The Guitar Show, Birmingham

Flame_Guitars

Looking forward to next weekends show, should be a good one. If you are planning to go, come and say hello at my stands, B8 , which is just behind Bare Knuckle Pickups. I'm also delighted to say that Phil Short, winner of Guitar Idol 2016 will be playing at my stand at various times during the day. Here are a few pictures of a couple of guitars I will be exhibiting. The studio pictures are of a recently completed guitar and the owner has kindly agreed to let me take it to the show.



Black walnut on korina body, zirocote compound radius fretboard, Semour Duncan P-Rails, Hipshot tremolo, Gotoh 510 locking tuners





I will also be taking a guitar that is similar to the one below. (pickups going in on Monday, so not finished yet!) It is flamed ash on claro walnut body, Bare Knuckle Nailbomb pickups (coil cut on both pickups), through neck, bubinga fretboard

Nice guitars, as ever, David.  That flamed ash is gorgeous.

Really like that flamed ash one - very different, and quite a unique design. Have you changed your headstock design?  I must admit I do much prefer the angular (PRS influenced perhaps?) ones in your pics above rather than the rounder type-shape shown on your website - or was that just a special one-off?

Thanks for the comment and and well spotted about the headstock shape. The headstock shape that you see on my website was way to pretty for a through neck guitar fitted with high output BKP. Needed something more edgy. I have used this shape on a few of my recent guitars and will do so in the future.

As I mentioned in an earlier post, Phil Short, winner of Guitar Idol 2016, will be playing at my stand this Saturday. If you are going to the Show, come and say hello.

Good time at The Guitar Show, Birmingham 10 days ago. My stand happened to be opposite The Fretboard stand, so it was good to meet TTony and other members of the forum (sorry if we were a bit noisy on the Saturday!) Those nice people at GuitarNerds interviewed me. Here is the video they posted on their YouTube site.

Good interview, looks like it was a lot of fun
