Definitly a very good guitar, light and resonnant my only regret on this model is the locking tuners but as I don't want to modify It I will keep the original one that are good anyway.

Congrats
They look like twins - same figuring on the top.

I was concerned about the non locking tuners but as it's a hardtail, so I don't think it will be an issue.

I believe that locking tuners require the drilling of an additional hole? - if so I won't do it.

Nice Score Spud - but 2 things.....


1. - You ever heard of Fedex ??? - that's a hell of a drive

2. - you were only 200 miles from my place - I am offended!!!!!


Killer top - look forward to hearing it at the next bash!

Well it's motorway most of the way, but once you cross Hadrians Wall, you gotta keep swerving to dodge those damn haggis!!

Congrats, Sir Spud

That is a great guitar you have added to your collection !!

When I was giving Darrell's EVH some attention last week I immediately fell back in love with the neck.

I guess we will have to wait until you get your hands on a digital camera before we get an updated family picture

They abolished the tolls - it was taking too long for them to take a crowbar to open our wallets, resulting in tailbacks. That was after them using oxy-acetylene cutting equipment to get inside each car in the first place
