Holy crap! Looks frickin' professional! [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img] Totally can't tell there's been any modification to it. Yes, that's a compliment. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Sullycaster Arrives!

Very nice! Is the Floyd crooked or is it just me?

Re: Sullycaster Arrives!

eric, check your email asap.

Re: Sullycaster Arrives!

The Floyd is definitely crooked. That's why the high E saddle is so far forward for intonation. Where did you guys get that body? I think I'd be sending it back for a replacement. Otherwise, guitar looks great! Did you do the finish Sully? Nice job!

that's one of mine, and yeah, it'll be replaced if that's what illumina wishes. it does intonate, so if it is off, (which i think it is after seeing this pic) it's compensated for, but i truly didn't notice anything being off until i saw this picture, and i'm completely mortified. i was so focused on not messing up that it looks like i did. royally. i'm sure that we're all asking "how the hell could you have missed that?" and i'm beating the ever living hell out of myself because of it.

no, i sure didn't. it was done by the painter that i'm using for trans finishes.

from my previous post, you can guess that illumina has been emailed, and i'll do everything i can to make it right. i know we all make mistakes, but that's what my own stuff is for. i'm completely horrified. completely and utterly horrified.

Re: Sullycaster Arrives!

If it makes you feel any better, I TOTALLY didn't notice the crooked Floyd at all until it was mentioned!

[sully]

Re: Sullycaster Arrives!

i didn't until i saw this pic. and i took plenty of pix of it.

I vote we all chip in some $ for Sully an eye exam!! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: Sullycaster Arrives!

y'know, if this was just for me, that's one thing. i'm so sorry this got past me. it's also a blast having this in the open in front of 4,000 people, but life will go on.

Re: Sullycaster Arrives!

Oops! I feel bad now for pointing it out! My "Green Sparkle" that was posted here has the same issue only in the opposite direction. Although mine was done on purpose, I still stare at it everyday and wonder if it really bothers me or not.
Again...sorry. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Ray, why was it done on purpose?

Sully, what matters is if you make it right, we all know it was an honest mistake. You were just so deep into the work part of it. That made it hard to look at objectively after a while...you should have taken a break and had a beer with me last week [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
