Yes, CC has been playing GMP's *almost* exclusively since the early 1990's. He will occasionally play something else but 95% of the time he's playing his GMP's live...

I saw Poison with RATT twice on the 2008 tour and he played all GMPs.

In January at NAMM he re-connected with the new ownership (Dan Lawrence) and ordered 2 new V's.

3 piece neck with flame maple center!

WOW! Need anybody to work in Quality control? :idea: J/K of course very nice work. OK, I now need a cigarette.

[Hellbat]

That bird looks killer. You guys need to do a 6 in line headstock though. 3+3 is so classical guitar.

[Dog Boy]

Hey Hellraiser has that FB been spoken for? If not lemme know what it might go for, ballpark. You can pm me if you like.

[Hellraiser6502]

Pm'd.

I keep stopping at this image wishing it wasn't routed for a neck pickup. :<

Took some time out for some new shop shots today...Here's one of the shop workorder boards.





Ian Neill's V Progress shot. With mineral oil applied to make the top 'pop'.


Ian's neck with body. Note the discoloration on the body is because the mineral oil has dried up in spots.


Ian's Guitar Headstock




Cool Birdseye Roxie that will get a Honeyburst finish


The neck in the foreground is for a NAMM piece 'Aces & Eights'

I thought Nelli's top looked awesome till I saw the figure in that bird. Wow. That's purty.

Very cool! Thanks for sharing the pics.

[Hellraiser6502]

Very cool! Thanks for sharing the pics.

John, I saw 'something' very RED there (at DRL) that you will be getting soon! Pretty cool I must say.

[Ward]

Very cool pics, thanks for sharing.

Just got a soloist back from DRL this week. Amazing work as always. Just waiting for a sunny day to take pics and post a NGD thread...

[MetalDaze]

There's a lefty on the board. Rock on!

Thanks, that was an idea I've had for a long time. I was wondering if you saw it. Very excited to get that one, should be here next week. Also, been meaning to check in with DRL to see if it's still 1/1 or if he did a twin for his friend like we discussed.
