yes every guitar is priced based on specs although there are pricing trends for similar models.

Are base prices on your website? I think I'll be popping by to see you at the Birmingham guitar show next year

Could this be Three Lions on a Shirt?

@FelineGuitars ;; you should sell t-shirts at next year's Guitar Show - some of your guitars laid out horizontally, with the caption,

"Felines on a shirt"

Have you got those t-shirts done yet?

Base prices start at £2400

Archtops start at £2700

Occasionally we do special runs like the DC Lion Cubs we did last year which were about £1800

Jon: serious question with my 50th birthday looming below the horizon in something over a year's lead time...

Do you make/would you be prepared to make a body shape that's not on your 'regular' list? I've a thing for offset types, and have some particular stuff in mind, and knowing *how* good your work is wondered whether my tentative plans might fly...

...still love love loving my Lion Cub DC btw

Sure - we used to do a lot but it was rarely asked for

JerkMoans · October 2018

Yum. That top one is proper mental: a sort of Jaguar/Firebird/Derek Trucks SG/Strat input hybrid with, what? Goldfoils? Looks cool as, anyhoo

They seem quite reasonable prices. Less than I'm paying for my build. Maybe should've gone to you

FelineGuitars · October 2018

Was a custom Bare Knuckle Rebel Yell with twin screw coil and a TV Jones Magnatron, and a Graphtech ghost piezo bridge with both acoustic sounds and MIDI output.

FelineGuitars · November 2018

The Tabby Madcat is nearing completion

DrBob · November 2018

Never seen this guitar from this angle before. Love the detail of how the contouring dresses away from the tailpiece

FelineGuitars · November 2018

So this is happening and I'm so excited

Nice simple lines

Once I get the sustainiac in there will be a couple more switches and maybe one more pot...not sure whether to have an intensity control or a possible tone pot.

Looks incredible. Getting very excited about this...

Schnozz · November 2018

The Southpaw on Reverb is a belter.

Thinking Mans Axis or the LP Axcess Gibson should have built ?

You keep making these fine-looking thin-bodied singlecuts!

I think you should add that "The Paul"-alike to this thread. Very curious to see how that turns out.

FelineGuitars · November 2018

The Feline Lion Cub HH "The Paul"

Once again it was me trying to shoehorn a flying V into a comfy "sit on the couch and play" LP junior type guitar (hence the control layout).

Ratio tuners
Earvana nut

Suhr Aldrich pickups

Tonepro bridge and tailpiece studs

Aluminium tailpiece
Neck is 21.5mm at 1st fret and 23mm at 12th (43mm wide at nut and 57mm at last fret)

Dunlop 6000 fretwire

Time for some new Feline Vs I think....

First up is another of our V58 models

Ignore the masking tape - we're just laying out the bridge and tailpiece locations

Should we go with the BKP Mules we originally intended or maybe try the Seymour Duncan Custom Shop Joe Bonnamassa Signature set for his Korina V called "Amos"?

FelineGuitars · August 2019

Some more Korina V madness - this time based on our V80 shape - slimmer shape with no pickguard and input jack in the inside of the upper fin in a strat jackplate>

We decided to give these Feline V80s a different choice in pickups from the typical all humbucker route.

One is pure P90 tone driven, and they other is a hybrid with a bridge humbucker and a neck position P90

This V80 is something of a hybrid with a bridge humbucker and a neck postion P90.
The split V chevron inlays give a unique twist to it as well .
What colour should we go for though...bear in mind we may well use cream pickups

This V80 is pure P90 tone driven with a pair of BKP Nantuckets lined up to go into it.
We were thinking that a goldtop colour scheme could be quite appropriate too to mimic the goldtop Les Paul it shares some styling with .

What do you think?

FelineGuitars · August 2019

Some more movement on the V80 Korina Vs

An @OilCityPickups Jingo P90 at the neck and a @OilCityPickups Transonic at the bridge giving a cool early 80s appeal to the look of this one.

OilCityPickups · August 2019

That's gorgeous ...

FelineGuitars · August 2019

Not sure about the knob colour but we were thinking about possibly doing it with a goldtop finish on the front and natural on the back.

Pickups are Bare Knuckle Nantuckets

Controls are 2 volumes and a tone and a 3 way switch

Real Mother of Pearl inlays on the front and black tahiti pearl dots in the ivoroid binding

Jack socket for both these guitars is on the inside of the upper fin

FelineGuitars · August 2022

So we recently completed a build for Ross @webrthomson ; on this forum with an amazing piece of redwood that he supplied

We went with an alder body with that redwood cap.

Neck is a 3 piece maple with a rosewoodboard
A Bill Lawrence tele rails pickup and a Mojo staple P90 capture all the tone

webrthomson · August 2022

Stunning as always Jonathan @FelineGuitars - I cannot wait to get my grubby paws on this - I'm on holiday next week, just as well as I'm planning on playing this, a lot

Howdy, Stranger!
