NGD: my grunge tribute guitar

[neilli]

I fucking hate grunge, so I ordered this in retaliation LOL

There were a few bumps along the road, and there's probably no point going over the specs because you can see everything (apart from the oiled neck and the fact that the body is alder I guess. Oh, and it has Shannon's sig on the back of the head too). This is my second custom select and I love the idea of spec'ing something 'simple but different'. This config is probably what I would have gone for on the seafoam I have too, but at that point, H/S and single volume weren't allowed.

Cool! I'm not a huge fan of pink, but that looks nice. I really like the MOP sharks on maple. What pickups?

[shreddermon]

Grunge tribute. LOL

Love that pink, Ian. It's eye-popping. Looks great! And I'm a big fan of H-S layouts. Congrats.

What pickups did you go with?

[neilli]

Full Shred and a regular hotrails..

[toejam]

Nice. Don't see too many Full Shreds in the bridge.

Great Idea. When I saw the title of this thread I cringed

FWIW, I'm using a Full Shred set in my 750XL.

Sweet. Did you choose not to have the Custom Shop logo on the headstock?

[daisp]

Awesome Ian...that rules

[Grandturk]

Pretty Cool. I'd like to see the logo in a color that would pop a little more against the pink.

Sweet. Did you choose not to have the Custom Shop logo on the headstock?

Yup. Generally speaking, I prefer not to have the CS logo as it just makes the headstock look a little 'busy' to my eyes..

W_O_W....I love it. FWIW, I burned every plaid shirt I owned in 92 and never looked back . Smokin guitar....congrats!

Yeah, maybe I should have titled the thread 'my revenge on grunge' or something LOL

[saffamarkus]

Perfect!!

[Axewielder]

Badass! Change it to a strat and it's pretty close to something I'd order. Well except the custom select won't let you do that, I don't think...

[Johnnyryche]

That kicks ass! I love grunge tributes like that.
