The New E.F.Elliott "RS Model" Guitars

[Strat-o-rama]

Thanks Ed. It looks like a real winner. Another finish to consider: "Cherry sunburst/red burst", like Semie used on Celebritys and some Mark 1s in the 1970s.
Look forward to your posts here as things progress.

Hey Strat-o-rama,
Semie's Cherryburst in a great color! Sunburst,Cherryburst,Blueburst or any
color you want on a custom order. No extra charge.
Thanks,
Ed

Thanks Artie!

When I get the "RS" line in to production,
I think Front Porch would be a Great Store
to be the E.F.Elliott westcoast Dealer.
What do you think Artie??

I think that would be a natural fit. ef elliots guitars sold right next to the new mosrites with dana's special touch to them. that would be the coolest guitar store in the world!!!!!

btw, Eddy my offer to live in your garage and and learn from the master still stands History truly comes alive in the hands of Ed Elliot. Your the best.

please excuse my ignorance, but may I ask what does "RS" stand for?

RS=Reverse Strat. That's from the old story of how Semie came up with the popular Mosrite design. He flip over a Strat and traced around it.

Hi Gang, I'm working on 2 Special "RS" standards, I can't wait to show them off when the're finished.
These are the first with a deep German carved top and a bound necks with a very special custom color, custom matching pickguard and head stock too.

I'm thinking about a "AKA" for the "RS" standard, this would go at the top of the head
like The Ventures logo on a Mosrite in that funky Surf style lettering. "The Twang Thang"
What do you think??? Let me know.

Hi Ed, pretty fun handle. Sounds like it would be in addition to your headstock mask. Any chance you could provide an illustration?
