I was really pleased with the review
Many of you will recall that these two guitars were on the BKP stand at the London Guitar Show and I think some of you will have played them.
they were finished off about the same time that we finished the lovely Explorer that we built for Tim , which was there at the show as well

They are both excellant guitars - loaded with some of Tim's finest pickups
The pickups get a nice review as well as part of the feature.
We had a set of Irish Tours in the hybrid and a pair of VH2s in the V.

Both guitars found many fans over the LGS weekend - including Guitar Buyer's Tim Slater who came and spent quite some time on the stand with Tim and the other guys .
Tim Slater asked if he could borrow them, put them through their paces and do a review and I am really pleased that I said yes.

Edited for clarity......

I'm gasing for a black LP with Warpigs and the extended scale like on your SG. Would that be expensive?

Prices on carve top LPs will go from £1650 upwards
£1650 would be all mahogany
A maple cap makes it more expensive
Flame or quilt can add to that - depends on grade
Ultimately dependant on specs - woods/ inlays/hardware/finish

Payment by instalment can make it easier to afford

Gimme a yell if you have any other questions
