The redheaded step-sister of the Harlot and the Guitar of Doom is making its debut...

This is a Heilo Standard (the only one un-customised so far!) that was supposed to be the companion build and teaching example of Kristie's Gutiar of Doom. Unfortunately, Kristie is lagging behind in class and needs to apply herself more vigorously to live up to her potential. :wink:
Instead it has been the companion build to the star of this thread.

Ash Heilo Standard:
Cedrella Body (satin amber back and gloss sunburst top finish)
Bubinga neck (oiled finish, flame branded logo)
Padauk Fretboard (22 medium-tall frets, Paua dots and side dots)
Rio Grande BBQ/Texas pickups
Ash GT hardtail bridge
Gotoh SG301-MG locking tuners
Graphtech nut

It wasn't build for anyone in particular, so its available at a particularly charitable price to honourable forum members who should be so tempted.

Ash, Luthier of Darkness, can I have my soul back now? :twisted: Er, perhaps it's better to pay cash BG. :wink:

Umm can we rephrase that to "Luthier of Doom". I'd rather not have any luthiering/luthiery/luthierness done to me, it may make future visits for ash products rather.... awkward.
AFK.
