    I'm still working on getting it set up right. After that the issue is I've only been playing since August and everything I play sounds like two cats fucking in a sack.

    That should be either a song title or a band name.

    Wow, it looks awesome!! Neat choice of swamp ash for the body - I like how the paint job allows the wood grain to show through. What kind of wood is the neck?

    You say your playing sounds like two cats fucking in a sack, if I tried to make a guitar it would look like impressionist sculpture depicting the very same act.

    Your thing looks good! Even as I don't know anything about guitars and don't have a sense of rhythm I can still appreciate the looks and the idea of playing something like it and it would definitely be nice to look at in the office and whenever no one was within an earshot the cats would go in the sack!

    Respect!
