I bought this at a NAMM show back in 1989. The reason it was for sale is that the ESP dudes put the crosses in wrong at the custom shop. I don't know if I should paint it or sell it.

If I decide to paint it, what would look good with the crosses?

I'm not sure what type of wood is on the wings, but it is soo light I think they might be swamp ash.

Paint it, that one's way cool! I'd probably just go with black.

Sell it, To me [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img].

Seriously, It´s exactly what I´ve been looking for for a Lynch Tribute [img]/images/graemlins/drool2.gif[/img]

BTW, my guess ids that the wings are alder, tood ark for poplar and not "grainy" enough for ash [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I would go and browse GMW's website for a sick graphic and then off she would go!

Re: Paint it or Sell it?

kinda curious , but if its from 1989, wouldnt 16 years of being untreated have warped the wood or left it succeptable to taking on moisture or anything?

Personally, It'd look great with a nice brown stain and some gold hardware!!!

Gloss black, gold hardware. It would look killer.

Black would be nice.
Or something like pencil Skelton/skulls.

Waitaminnit - 1989?! You sure that's not supposed to be 1999? I thought they were still doing the Jackson-head in 89?

Re: Paint it or Sell it?

In 89, they already had this headstock.
Like the guys from Queensryche and Vernon Reid from Living colour had a guitar(it was a Mirage body with Reversed headstock) with that headstcok that he was using on Vivid Tour in 89.
