Toru Blue GMW

[fritzreiser]

Lee just sent me this pic of my guitar. It will be shipped on Monday.

I got the neck and logo on it from Peedenmark about a year ago. The neck was NOS, but still in rough form. So, Lee had to radius and fret it.

Specs: Alder body, Toru Blue paint, urethane finish, hardtail, Duncan Duckbuckers-neck, Duncan Hot Stack-middle, Duncan JB Jr.-bridge, sperzels, straplocks. I am pretty sure that the neck is 1 3/4" width at the nut. Can't wait to git it.

Re: Toru Blue GMW

Is there white fretboard binding on that too? Friggin' cool!

Because it's a flattop with no rounded edges and no forearm contour, it kinda looks like a cardboard cutout guitar. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Kidding. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

What kind of neck is it? Charvel I'm guessing. I thought Lee wasn't building guitars around other parts anymore? [img]/images/graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img]

Anyhoo, it is gorgeous. I hope you enjoy it. [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

Re: Toru Blue GMW

I don't think that it is a flat top. I think that is just the how it appears in the photo.

The neck is an NOS Charvel neck that I bought over a year ago from Peedenmark. At the time, Lee was still okay with building bodies for Charvel necks. And yes, it does have binding. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Very nice Fritz!
Very cool choice of pickups too.
I love Toru Blue color... I want every guitar in that color only if I had money.

And is the colour named after you, man? [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

Love the guitar, flattops are a fresh change of scenery.

Hey Ward and Veli, wazup!
I have been taking a break from JCF for a while and not posting much. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Yea, that's my name.
I had a GMW Dinky in that color I came up with which was little lighter than Sonic Blue.
I'd love to order something with this color again.. just saving money now.
That Fritz's Strat is killer. That would be something I'd love to order.. maybe a hum in the bridge position..
