Red Devil
This is based on the Kay Red Devil guitars. After numerous failed attempts at trying to own an original I decided it was time to make my own. I obtained the tracing from a friend and went to work. Body is composed of plywood sides and a mahogany top with veneer edging. I obtained all the body materials for this at my local wood shop. Unlike a conventional vacuum press used to form the body, I approached it by soaking the plywood in hot water and drying it over a form. The headstock on the neck was also trimmed down, built up and veneered. I opted for some Gretsch Filtertrons. A great many thanks to those at the Reranch forum for there help and knowledge as this was a first time hollowbody build for me. Finish is a rustoleum red with a satin lacquer varnish, grain is filled with an epoxy.
