another blues creek guitar
Mytch Berdah built a kit from Blues Creek. It turned out very well if I say so myself.

Re: another blues creek guitar
Very nice John, lots of bling on that one for sure. Do you happen to have dimensions for the inward tapered headstock?

Re: another blues creek guitar
Hi, Daren. Here's picture of the modified peghead. I've cut the slotted peghead and add mahogany pieces on both sides. Then I put on an ebony veneer and my son Logan did the logo he designed with walnut and rosewood and a whit plastic purfling strip.
It's my first try on the forum, if you don't get the pictures, here's a link where you'll have all the building pictures.

Re: another blues creek guitar
structurally there is no difference . It is a personal preference , as long as the buttons fit you can do about anything you want.
