wanna see build pics?

[rottingcorpse]

oh yeah, my man brent kicks ass!!!

got to stop in pheonix today on the way to l.a. and feel the neck. man, he knows exactly what the fuck he is doing. he actually took a molding of my favorite ml's neck with plastic a month ago when i was in town, and nailed the neck profile.

i have a bunch of build pics from start to where he is now, but will need juggy-not to upload them for me to my photobucket. call you tonight, cupcake.

needless to say, i am already planning money for the next build.

Dean might be callin ya soon?

nah, elliott (the owner of dean guitars) knows me pretty well. he has built me some awesome guitars over the past 5 years, including a one-off flamed redwood with all sorts of c.a.d. modifications . he wont give me much shit for having exactly what i want built by someone else, at least until he can do neck though mlf's for me. he keeps promising me they will, but they are kinda back-logged right now.

i have been begging him for a neck though for 4 years. i got sick of the custom paint jobs cracking at the neck joint. nothing sucks worse than spending $800+ on paint only to have it crack. plus, i wanna use a different painter than they/we/I have been using for the last few years.

plus, i wanted stainless steel frets, the carbon fiber rods next to the truss rod, custom floyd routing for the floyd upgrades big block, washburn volute and heel carve, etc.....

but if elliott calls me, i'll let you know.
