Afraid to say it hasn't arrived mate. 

How's Firebrid plans going BTW?  I'll try to have a hunt around for the scratchplate later today.

just to chip in with all the people agreeing this is a fun and really entertaining guitar to play. i was pretty tempted myself too, but prefer the full-size explorer shape. i guess it still has the holy diver in it.

Prefer the all white look tbh, looks a bit tacky and cheap now I think :(

so you wirewool the neck then coat it?

how long would that stay super shred fast for?

wirewool first to remove shine, add a bit of wax with wire wool , leave overnight and buff again with cloth

how long it lasts depends on the player more than anything else, but it lasts long enough not to be a problem
