I think your black/gray fade finish is a superb idea. Definitely go for the metallic flake!!

Morbid, feed us

I love projects like this! I am currently in the midst of a couple, one of them for a friend.

I can't BELIEVE someone would do such a hack job on such a nice instrument...

I miss this thread! MORBIDDDDDDDDD! Updates!

**browndog** · 10-21-2009, 12:58 PM

Seriously Morbid, throw us a fricken bone here.

Is it too much to ask to have sharks with fricken laser beams attached to their heads.

This is a thread definitely worth the read..
I was literally biting my nails while reading it from the beginning and the time I saw the mockup..

damn... she is going to be a beauty!

Woah, just read the whole thing... I wonder what will happen first, the arrival of my first EBMM, or the finishing of this guitar

M-O-R-B-I-D-!!!! Where are you? The herd is getting anxious

**Ernieballplayer** · 10-26-2009, 10:34 AM

This sure is taking forever.

We need an update or I'm going to have to find another Sub-1 and do a complete re-do to make it a "Sohn Onetucci".

I'll do it.......(threatening gestures)......don't make me.....

Why not take a chainsaw and create a SUB Frankentucci

**Sub1 Zero** · 10-28-2009, 02:13 AM

The finish on the SUB would mess up a chainsaw.

Yes JP played one at the first forum bash and under the lights it was changing colors. I thought it was the color changing paint until the house lights came up........

And of course my JP is Graphite Pearl

**King Loudness** · 10-28-2009, 08:52 AM

Morbid....the updates please!

**Morbid** · 10-29-2009, 11:23 AM

Sorry fellas, not much to update on. I spoke to my luthier and potential paint guy yesterday. He feels that the paint scheme is beyond his ability, but said he might know someone who can do it. It'll be a matter of price as to whether or not I go with his contact or not. As it turns out, finding a reliable painter that doesn't want $500 for the job is turning out to be the most difficult part! I'm also not willing to risk destroying the project by hiring the wrong person to do paint, so I've been looking very diligently. I like the frankentrucci idea though...anyone got a chainsaw I can borrow?
