Earlier on in the week, my new guitar arrived. An 88 Charvel Model 4.
It's currently got a Screamin' Demon in the bridge, which is pretty awesome, but I've decided to Bare Knuckle it.

Just ordered a Painkiller for the bridge, and two Trilogy Suites for the middle and neck. Can't wait to hear them properly, it's just not the same hearing clips.

Anyway, to the pictures... Apologies for the quality, I had to use my phone to take em.

Haha, I think it probably would make young children cry, it makes grown men fearful, and airport staff look like they're considering refusing to let it through security.

I think there's only one option when it comes to putting Bare Knuckles in that one, gotta be the ceramic warpigs.

That ain't bad, all things considered. I have been into Moser's stuff for a couple years now... Though, now that i can essentially make my own, well, there really doesn't seem any point in buying - even if it is a custom shop build. I do love those bar-steward V's though, gotta hand it to them for the original design (and some of the custom shop builds are absolutely gorgeous!); needless to say, if i ever lack the urge to build one myself, or more importantly have the urge to buy one (and have the means) i would do it.

EDIT: LOL! The website alters the term B A S T A R D, HAHAHA!
