Ah, I can see the pics now!  :D

Flame top looks great, even if it is just veneer (or fotoflame?).  And the rosewood board looks good too - some of the SEs seem to have cr@ppy rosewood with lots of white bits embedded in the grain.

Starting to get a taste for budget guitars again Dave?  They make me feel much less "guilty".  And obviously they're much less detrimental to the credit card balance.  :wink:

I like a project, and pimping stuff, so these SEs are perfect for that.

I'll see how it sounds stock before choosing between Blue Notes and Nantuckets.  Like Phil says though, I think the Nantuckets are the way to go....

That's a pretty one. I also like the hollowbody P90 loaded SE's. With natural flamed veneer they look great.

I've had a bit of GAS for a P90 guitar again for a little while, and playing Feline's latest Lion Cub really didn't help!  I didn't want to spend a fortune so I've keeping an eye on eBay, a few shop websites and a couple of forums.  Nothing really whetted my appetite until the guitar below appeared on eBay today.  It arrives on Tuesday, pretty good looking for £325 I thought, and worth paying a little bit more than I wanted to for it.

I had BKP P90s in a Gibson LP DC Special a little while back which sounded great, but I prefer the PRS McCarty style scale length and control layout.  Now the range has changed I'm not sure what the equivalent is to the 'old' P90, so I'll have to give BKP a ring.  I may try the BKP pots and Jensen cap too.....








Nice that mate loved that Gibbo you had I tried when I came down to Manc just wish i'd had the money at the time to buy it. Anyway my new PRS is great at the moment looking like its going to be taking the no.1 slot but I still love the Gibbo............sorry not hijacking the thread
