GGBO23kit_The Viking-V Final Chapter - Electronics, assembly and a little demo

I finished my first completely self-designed guitar, the Viking-V. Inspired by a Viking ship and Norse mythology, several motifs of which can be found on the guitar. Hand-carved alder body and bolt-on maple neck, rosewood fingerboard with bone inlays, etched pattern aluminum scratchplate and electronics cavity cover, and other minor components, Gotoh ABR1 bridge, Warman pickups with custom covers (both switchable in series and parallel humbucker and single coil mode) 2 volume and 1 master tone potmeter with viking shield knobs, 3-way toggle switch with Mjölnir tip, Reversed single-line head with viking ship bow ornament carving, and Gotoh locking tuners. A lot of tinkering, planning, drawing, a few hundred working hours, a few failed and remade parts, and a few drops of blood, but it's finally done. #ggbo23 #greatguitarbuildoff2023 #ggbo2023kitbuild #vikingguitar #viking-v #slguitart Music: - Denis DL: Rock Intro - Alexander Nakarada: Anemo, Stormpath, Hall of the Metal King
