righty ho. i know this kind of died.. but craig cant talk either!
some of you may sigh or huff when you see iv bought this, but i love the look of it!
just bought this...

ill be generally making this better as i go. with new humbuckers and so on.. as and when i can afford.
as for the guitar, iv left it alone because of the lack of heating in my dads shed.. but eventually im going to get back on the case and sand all my rubbish painting down to the wood and paint it properly with my spraygun.
happy days

iv always loved the look of them. im sure its a personal thing. i was going to go out and sand my guitar right down today but i spent 2 or 3 hours trying to recover the pictures from my broken pc. i eventually managed it but by then there was no time to do guitar plus i couldnt really be bothered to be honest. ill try to do some tomorrow hopefully.

it arrived today
its damn sexy!
its a bit rough round the edges.. but what do you expect for a cheap guitar
once iv run it in ill give it a full set up.

[Down&Out]

i screwed my guitar up


















and it looks awesome!




i started to sand the rubbish paint down and got bored, and had stain left from doing my DT project. so i thought.. "ahh feck it" and sprayed it. still gotta do the other side, then im gunna put some stickers on it and laquer it
good times

[Mini-Mad-Craig]

how does that ever look awsome

[Down&Out]

i love it. haha. just gone and done the other side, its all bubbly but will add to the effect.

[Mini-Mad-Craig]

Are you leaving it like that then mate? Might finish Ok with some fine Lacquer, Its definatly different!

[Down&Out]

yeah im sticking a sticker or 2 on it, then sticking a thick laquer on it. im also finishing the neck in tinted laquer for the retro look. then bunging it back together with some fancy pickups probably.

[Mini-Mad-Craig]

Be Careful, Lacquer will almost certainly destroy most stickers or decals

[Down&Out]

bah no stickers then

[mighty mini jack]

bah no stickers then

Can always put them on after the laquer
