Post up your hollow and semi-hollow love

[smitty_p]

I'll start.

It's just a humble Washburn HB-30 with some mods. I've modded it with Seymour Duncan '59s, Bourns 500K pots, .022 mfd caps, and a Switchcraft switch.

There are lots more mods in planning...

It is a really fun guitar to play, it sounds great, and just has as cool vibe, all around.

So, fellow hollow and semi-hollow nutcases, you can run but you can't hide...

PICS OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN!

My two semi hollow bodies. The first one is a Terry McInturff Royal and the second is an Epiphone Sheraton II. The Royal is a very different design, solid mahogany with a tone chamber hollowed out in it. The Sheraton II is a more conventional semi-hollow. Neither guitar will be leaving my collection. The Royal is my current Number one and the Sheraton is number three.

Very wonderful guitars, Kerry.

WOAH, RVA. WHAT IS IT? The Flame Top

A Gibson CS-336. Very similar to the ES-339 but the back and sides are all one piece of mahogany

I can't find the damn picture....

Then, it didn't happen!

Seriously, I think you've posted pics of it over at ETSG. Maybe you can copy it from there?

Where does a VIOLA bass fall in the Holow? SemiHollow?

Hollow...semi-hollow...what's a center block between friends!

Yeah. Somehow...the words, "335," and, "used to own," in the same sentence makes me sad.

As you wish,

Here's my usual vertical front shot, just a repeat of the pic in my OP.

Here's a more close-up, body shot. You can see the cream binding. There is enough of the neck in this shot to see that the neck is also bound...and NO NIBS!
