Thanks again gents!

That's a very beautiful guitar!! Those 10th anniversary are just great. A real thrill you have there!
Nah mate, thrill is gone.  8)

I would never have imagined the silvery covers with the etched 10th Anniversary logo working visually with the gold hardware. But in fact it works **so well**
When I have some left over time I might pop out photoshop though to get an idea how it would look with silver hardware. Wonder if that would be better or worse.
I must also think that any other silver pickup other than the 10th would look a lot less good. That etching seems really important to me.

Anyway, beautiful guitar. What's the back of it like, is there a panel you can somehow remove to inspect and change the electronics?
Picture answer mostly. One of the pots and the switch are really hard to reach though.

BKPs in use: 10th set / RY set / Holy Diver b, Emerald n / Crawler bridge, Slowhand mid MQ neck/ Manhattan n
On the sidelines: Stockholm b / Suppermassive n, Mule n, AM set, IT mid

Oooh yeah. Nice one. :D

My unpotted Mules went in my 335 (no back plate, slightly trickier surgery, but doable). I did wonder about the 10th Anniversaries when they came out but I decided not to mess about with it again.

However, I was using it the other week, and I was getting the old "hmmm, is this really as good as it could be?" vibe... Although, interestingly, I've just been replacing the bass part under what I'd done, and suddenly the Muled 335 part sounds heavenly without further tweaking :roll: (There's a message for us geetar-pickers in there somewhere :lol:).


Excellent NGD, sir :D
