That top! + Awsome color combo, PBB Maple, nice guitar!

 

[RobW]

Thanks guys!

This colour is really hard to photograph - it ranges from deep blue to almost black to blue/turqouise, depending on the light. I've tried taking a lot of pictures, and the one that comes closest to representing the actual colour, is probably this, taken with nondirect dayligth. It is such an awesome guitar.

Beautiful, and that's a great pic - if the poster reflection wasn't there, it would be perfect.

That's a marvelous top on that one.

cheers always, eh

[Dizzy]

What a ripper !

Congrats Ras !

 

[GuitaRasmus]

Thanks, Diz!

I actually ended up paying the same amount for this, as I would have for yours, but the other ones I could find were either red or amber, and I really really wanted it to be pacific blue burst - that color is kind of scarce.

Anyway - It flat out rocks.

 

[Tim O'Sullivan]

That is one nice axe!

You got a nice one for sure with a unique looking top.

Thanks! I just played my first gig with it (I usually play a gig once or twice a week, some months a weekend or two off), and it absolutely rocked. I need great clean tones as well, since I play covers, which humbuckers doesn't quite do in my opinion, so before the gig, I installed a push/pull pot to split the humbuckers, but with a twist, so that the inner coils are active when split, and I flipped the magnet and the wires on the neck pickup, so that the two humbuckers are rw/rp, just like a strat, meaning that the center position, when split, is also humcancelling.

It really really rocks, and is a great sounding and playing guitar. It is almost effortless to play and has great tone - such a winner.

Awesome top!
There's some traditional flame present beneath the bridge, then it goes wild!
Now that You got it doing single coils, one more thing You need to widen the sound spectrum is D-Tuna .

Thanks, man!

About the D-tuna: No way! I absolutely hate drop-d tuning - It throws the whole fretboard off for me, and I can play just fine (and quicly enough) just using regular power chords - standard tuning is where it's at, for me.
