Fugly - And needs more sanding to get it all smooth.

I reckon the Vociferator would look good in those colours Wez.

Awful, awful, awful. They've d!cked around with the SG, Explorer and V* so far and I'm now waiting for a reverse 335 finished in Raspberry Ripple (with an explorer headstock of course).



*There may be more that I have forgotten about.
I think I hate being indecisive.

possibly,  the chances of me using ply are slim to none so it would have to be paint

worth having a look at the other colours

i also like the way the try and sell the bad points of ply as if they were features, like the weight for instance

In a way, I almost admire Gibson for producing this guitar.

No-one else would have come up with this concept.  They are totally $%&#ing mental.

I don't actually mind the black one.  Would want a neck made out of real wood though.

dano's are a law unto themselves, its a pine frame topped front and back with masonite (hardboard).  a lot of the distinctive sound comes from the pickups.

I keep thinking about doing a classy dano with near identical construction but proper woods

Wouldn't be a Dano if it wasn't made of kicthcen fitters off cuts.

Got no issue with the ply neck, just think that they're uggly buggly.

Also Wez, decided to let the Firebird go to a good home.  Want it?  Drop me a PM if you do.
