I bloody love the cream/zebra combo now. It'll probably be what I'll put on every guitar it'll suit at all henceforth.
Yeah bro, first set of BKP's I got were secondhand set of nailbombs in Zebra, didnt think I'd like them much but got them chucked them in my epi LP and they looked awesome. I've changed them over to my Jackson Scott Ian Sig now, doesnt quite suit it looks wise, slowly growing on me tho, but fully suits it soundwise.

Pics from before I swapped all my pickups around.

quite like my epi from when i was 17, except a much nicer veneer on yours.  it was my first proper guitar too and curently pimped out with spare hardware and pickups i had




38th - love that strat!

See, I quite specifically meant the cream bridge, reverse-zebra neck. You don't see it so often and I think it looks absolutely marvelous. It suits WAY less guitars that normal zebras though.

Can't say it suits your Parker if I'm honest....

I think it does, which is all that matters, eh?  :wink:

This one. Love everything about it, neck shape, radius, completely unfetterred access to everything, control layout is sensible even tho it looks scary at first.
Oh, and when people come up to me and say "what is it?" then tell me it's ugly, then I let them try it and in 25  years they've all said "it's really nice" with a shocked expression  :wink:. Only things I've played that are nicer (to me anyway) are Blackmachines and Parkers.

Nice parker BTW  PDT_003

It's an Aria Urchin BTW

Nolly's = my favorite on here :D My current number one axe =

BUT, no doubt this'll be my favorite axe once it's finishied (it's very simular to this dudes anyway:)

There's a different guitar it's based on but Conklin have a new site and the pics gone and this one is the closest to it.

The fact that body is upside down, does it make it more valuable like stamps with mistakes on them?  8)  8)  8)

Looks like I'm the first to post a pic of a non-electric.


I play this guitar every day.

Usually with this heavy brass slide

Martin, you already know my answer to that, and it would be impolite to post it on a forum  :censored:

OK - this is bugging me now - how do I stick a large image in the body of the reply, rather than attaching an image at the end?

And I KNOW this is a stupid question!

Thanks!!
