Chris-

After about (4) hours of playing my CIFER, I think I'm prepared to offer some feedback other then WOW!

 

I'd be flattered to have it passed along to other players who may be considering a CWG instrument.

 

After looking at your website & Facebook, and  reading about your background,  and seeing descriptions, pictures, etc. of your work, I knew I would receive a superb instrument.

 

However, The CIFER Custom Bass that you built for me far exceeds what I was prepared for!

 

The bass is ergonomic and comfortable, perfect playing position. Everything about the construction feels tight & right.

What impresses me most is how you combined all the right elements to provide a HUGE sound!

 

There were details that I chose: hardware, finish, and graphics, that made this a personal instrument; but I thought it best to go with

your suggestions as to tonewoods and electronics for a Bass Guitar.

 

Wow, did you ever get it right! 

 

There are SO MANY tonal variations available; even the slightest adjustment adds tremendous color and flavor.

No matter how the bass is eq'd everything is full, resonant, and even. It's a wonderful and powerfully expressive instrument.

 

Needless to say, the bass is built flawlessly, that's to be taken for granted from your shop; I think it looks amazing.

 

You asked for critiques; honestly I don't have any! At first, the placement of the input jack seemed a bit out of place, but now

the location and angle are just fine, and make perfect sense.

 

Thanks for your skills, time, and craftsmanship in building this instrument for me- I promise you that I'll enjoy playing it immensely

for the rest of my life!

 

Regards,

Hi Christopher,  What can I say... It's just a dream. Your Skull is just the best I have ever seen!  Much much better than the very expensive original ESP. The sound is great and strong. Like a wall of sound.  But the best no question is the greatfull neck. The touch is so excellent. I LOVE the feeling of the wood. The fine mat colour and the carving of the skull look so brilliant.  I'm very very proud to be the owner of this fine and unique guitar.  So I miss the words to say the right feeling I have.  But a BIGBIG THANK YOU for your MASTERWORK!  I wish you all the best and you can be sure I will be a very strong keeper for this high class instrument!  All the best.

Hi Christopher,

I just wanted to let you know that one of your creations has one the Sept 2009 Guitar Of The Month on www.metalguitarist.org.  I bought the parts from Lee & them put it all together!  I call it the "Sexxxiverse."  It truly is a fine instrument & I'd love to order another custom from you!  It meets &, in some cases, exceeds all the high-end Ibanez 7-strings I own or have owned.

 

Here's the thread I started once I got it together:

http://www.metalguitarist.org/forum/guitar-instrument-discussion/15343-ngd-christopher-woods-spalted-sexxxiverse-custom.html

 

And here's the GOTM thread.  It was nominated & voted on by the forum members.

http://www.metalguitarist.org/forum/guitar-month/15990-gotm-september-2009-shannons-cw-sexxxiverse-custom.html

 

Thank you again for an unbelievable instrument!

I bought a body and neck from you last year. My wife picked up when you lived here in LA. It worked out great. Thanks!

 

I was hoping that you could help me with my new project.

This is an insane guitar. The body is a custom order from Christopher Woods Guitars that is loaded with custom ordered Bartolini pickups and a preamp built by Frank Falbo.  This is all top shelf from folks who know what they're doing. The guy is a great luthier but heavily back-ordered.

The CWG body is basically a two piece body; a 22mm Alder back and a 17mm Purpleheart front with a 5mm Walnut top.   If you look hard at the neck dot markers you can see that Christopher Woods removed the original  markers and replaced them with Purpleheart markers. He also laminated the headstock with Purpleheart. This is absolutely an awesome guitar that needs to go to someone who can play and will play her - no need in owning a Ferrari if I drive in rush hour traffic
