Re: Hardware color opinions needed

you ever get hurt while playing that guitar? I am partial to black hardware on all my guitars, but that is just me.

This was the "Resurrection" that Rob Halford was singing about... he died and became reincarnated as that guitar. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Halford called and wants his outfit, which you are using as a guitar, back. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Man, you have some discipline to sit there for six hours doing that... I would have gone insane! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Turned out awesome. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Siggy - Nope. You don't even feel them (well, I don't because I rest my arm on the bevel and side, not the top [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] )

Thanks NOTP - it's not quite finished yet, though - I had me another one o them thar ideas at work last night, and tested it out when I got home this morning, and it should be easy as pie compared to the front(and with less chipping) [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Very.....interesting. You could always use it as a weapon if the audience gets out of control. Teach those stage divers a lesson!

Kerry Kings armband would be a good match for that.

Anybody want a Kelly done in these things? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
I've got a spare neck, and I'll do it up cheap. All you do is supply the body and pay for the studs and some cheap labor costs, plus shipping to and from [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
Final cost depends on the design and number of studs used.

If this goes over well enough I may give it a shot at going "semi-pro" with it [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Pretend Killer

Here it is:








The neck bolts are recessed into the heel like a KE-3, there's no serial number anywhere, the top horn is not angled like the other Killers on the website and inthe catalog I've got, and you can see the pickup through the tremolo route. There's also a knothole on the back of the neck.
I'd say I've been had [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

The SAD part? Whenit was on Ebay, I had a bid of $125 for it, and no one else was bidding. Fearing snipers, I offered the guy $250 and he took it. I think I shoulda stayed at $125 [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: Pretend Killer

Also the fingerboard is rosewood and 24 frets. Real Killer stars come with maple and 22.
And you lack a locking nut there...
