The 50s T-Style Reveal!

Here's the big reveal of the completed product - my vintage inspired 50s T-Style guitar.

Now before I continue, vintage purists may point out that this is not 100% vintage correct, for example using Gotoh SGS510Z machine heads which I simply find unbeatable in terms of tuning stability.  My personal ethos is to build a guitar that looks, feels and plays the best in can.  Whilst this is vintage inpsired, not everything is vintage correct, but it certainly looks and sounds the part!
