Wow, that camera takes SICK pics!

[Johnny Mac]

Nice pics! Thanks for posting those.

Ben & Phil I'm sure at some point next year I can fly in to NJ! I have family there too. Well if I'm living in the states it would be rude not to!

hi Johnny, you'd be welcome to stay a few nights at my place if you need to.

You know, looking at these photos it looks like we just knocked
over a music store or warehouse... amps, guitar cases, electronics
equipment, and beer.  


Hey guys. Thank you all, I had a really fun time. Should you decide
to do it again, hope you count me in. Great photos BC, it couldn't
have been easy finding decent angles amongst the stacks of cases.
Thanks again for the ride Shag. BTW your SG is a beast, I wouldn't
change a thing, it's pretty solid as it is. Bens playing, of course, is
phenomenal but you all knew that I think. I mean scorching! Great
stuff, must make better effort to come see you guys next time. Then
there was Phil's collection. Well, what can one say? It was certainly
a privilege and a rare opportunity to try so many quality instruments.
Fantastic, really.


Thanks again, everyone! Cheers!  :D

As an additional thought ...

Shag's Warpig/MQ-loaded SG sounds mint. I have never been a fan of the SG, I just suck when I play one, but that guitar has some serious mojo! Even though I was still thrown off by where the neck sits, getting that thing to scream was like shooting fish in a barrel.

Also, Twisted Louie's Epi 335-ish clone with a Mule/Stormy Monday. SMOKIN'! I was challenged to try to figure out a way to get the guitar to do metal, and it did suprisingly well. Pinch harmonics were screamin! Of course, it lacked some of the bottom end chunk of a solid body, but it really sounded amazing! We joked about how funny it would look if I brought one onto stage @ a gig. I can picture my singer now .. 'Uh, uh. That thing is not going on stage the same time I am!!'

I only have one electric guitar.  All my others are acoustic and nylon.  
Since the meet, I am saving to buy a decent cheapo guitar to put in a nailbomb.  I could not put down Phil's guitar with the nailbomb and kahler bridge.  He said he got the strat style body off ebay for $20usd.  It sounded amazing.  All I did was hit a power chord and was like I NEED THIS PICKUP!!!!

All the BKP's were top notch.  If I had money to burn, I would buy them all.  Or maybe I can just be Phil's best friend....hahahaha

I have not been able to log on to this site from work over the past few days, but now I'm back. My camera was acting up while I was at Phil's house (having a five year old can do that to equipment) Some of the other shots I have were very similar to the shots I posted. The gathering was great crack (as you say in the UK) and I truly appreciate that I got to meet a few of the US endorsees of Bare Knuckle Pickups.

I picked up my Warpig & Mississippi Queen at the P/O today. It will be about three more weeks before I can put them in the SG because I have been refinishing it and I’m down to the last couple of coats of Nitrocellous. I will need to let it cure for two to three weeks before I finish it;  then Shag101 and I will each have SG's equipped with the venerable Warpig with the Mississippi Queen combo.

[Shag101]

I’m down to the last couple of coats of Nitrocellous.

I would love to see a pic when its done.
