"Kahle" post motivated me to share my latest LP-style creation.
we had PASSOVER at the begining of april and then the israeli students association decided to go on a strike as a way of protesting against the governments intention to raise the tuition costs.
any way, it ment a lot of time for lutherie ;)

so ive completed a black LP made out of stuff that i had around- sapele for body and neck & alder for top.
inlays where done by my little brother(its his guitar).





i also had the time to get this "flamenca negra" one step closer to being done...
its been close to being done for 6 moths or so...
its a camatillo/carpathian combo, my usual shape and my usual bracing(based on R.E Brune's 51 Brabero plan).





Udi.

They're looking good, Udi! I really like the top carving on the electric. I'm looking forward to seeing your completed flamenca. That camatillo looks great!

Yeah, what Carlton said!
Good looking guitars, and it's always a pleasure when you stop by.
Glad you had some time to work...it payed off.

Wow, Udi, I love that LP. I'm going to try one some day, and that is a great inspiration.
