Title: NGD (project)
Post by: horsehead on July 31, 2009, 07:11:19 AM

well SG saw this & knew of my hankering for an N2...except that this is going to be a real project job!  Behold the hard tail N2!!!

The neck is fine, but as you can see some person thought what this guitar needed is the cavity blocking off! Bodge job as well, never mind, it'll be fun trying to put it back to something that resembles a rock guitar

What a challenge!

I'm assuming you'll paint it?  Any ideas what you're going for?

That could be serious fun to put right & become a kick ass guitar.

Good luck with the work and please keep us updated.

What colour paint?

I really hope you go for something totally non standard.

That should be AWESOME when its finished! I've always had a soft spot for the N series.

Cool concept for a project, but that huge wooden plug on the front is unfortunate.  Hope you got it for a good cheap price!

What on earth is going on with those two "dots" in front of the 22nd fret?
