It's nice when some of my strange ideas can be useful for someone...

Congrats, Robert,
your strange ideas are such a tempting brain food... I need more and more and more.
 
The double DW made my day also, I wonder what you will come up with next

Rob,
would it be possible for you to build me a DDW with your computer program?

Well I must say this thing is really growing on me....

Guys,
btw here is a small video excerpt from our last gig.
Unfortunately only exactly 37 persons of audience.
Sorry for the bad sound; taken with a normal video cam.
What do you think?

Oliver, I could try....
 
It won't be perfectly accurate, cause I only have the pictures to get the bodyshape from.
 
Very few of the pictures are straight from above.
 
Maybe Mica can give me something better to work with. And I need the correct string spacing for both necks.
 
4-string upper and 4+octave lower neck?

I found a good picture on FC January 2004, it will do... I hope. (I've straightened it up a bit)
 
I use the pickups to get the right scale.

Early preview.
 
(Ignore the strange shadows in the pickup pockets)

Rob, wow you are fast mate.  
Would it be possible to change the tint to an amber
maple and have each a hum canceller installed?
Wow...

Step two. I used a texture that's in AutoCAD, named Light Ash for the top.
How do You like the P-heart lams in the necks?
Middle one is .25, next 2: .125 and the outer ones: .0625. The 4 pieces of Maple in between are all .25.
