more sketches

I've noticed that jazz guitarists using solid bodies are quite into experimentation and high-tech for their instruments - they will go for radical ergonomic design, carbon necks and bodies, headless, fretless, metal fingerboard, piezo pickups, MIDI, etc... on the other hand those who use hollow bodies are stuck with instruments that are supposed to have reached perfection 60 years ago... thought I'd put a little bit of work at rejuvenating the ancestor... plus some more variations on headless and minimal ergonomics.








I thought that I 'invented' asymetric F-holes but you can see a nice vintage example here (but mine are even better).
