Looks great mate, very 'you' :twisted:

That looks awesome, especially with that maple board!!

Can't wait for the clips!

It sounds awesome too. It seems like moving the Cold Sweat forwards by about 3-4 mm has placed it into a real sweet spot. It also sustains like mad!!!

Clips soon-ish. Have a gig to get thru, first, and get my rig back into my house.

Not sure if having the matching amp and guitar looks naff, or not -- I like it, tho!

needs a logo.. headstock too blank ;)

There is a logo, but I need to lacquer the headstock face first. Ben wanted the guitar for tonight's practice so I just threw it together quick. The neck is actually oiled, but you can't put decals over the oil finish, so the face hasn't been touched yet.

Wow looks awsome, i love Maple necks on strats.

where's the flame?!

:lol:

i'd change a few things like the headstock shape and scratchplate e.t.c., but hey, it's not my guitar...

I think Davey was being difficult, Phil. Pay him no mind!
