Hole (Guitar)

[Dark Horse]

Here's my current build - an Explorer. Gonna call it Hole for reasons that will become obvious soon.

Already got most of the hardware for it - EMG HZ pickups, Epiphone tune-o-matic bridge, sharkfin tailpiece, graphite nut, Wilkinson heads, Les Paul wiring, custom scratchplate, jackplate and trussrod cover.

Gonna carve dragons and shit on the surface.

You clearly are a fan of Courtney Loves band...

 

[Dark Horse]

Ha, I'm fucking not!

You'll slap yourself upside the head when the real reason for the name presents itself.

Finally got to borrow my friend's Explorer so I could use it as a template. Just need to decide where the knobs will go now.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

What color do you plan to make it?

 

[Dark Horse]

It's gonna stay natural mate. All the others I've made have been painted so I wanted a change. I selected the wood and bookmatched it myself.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

That'll be beautiful...may I suggest a colored edge?...flat black would lo killer with a natural finish

 

[Dark Horse]

Well I have some black and silver hardware to go on it so there will be black
