NGD: '85 Soloist Custom

[djpharoah]

Just got this in and just tuned it up today and wow it slays in that the neck is like my GMWs. The guitar is also super heavy probably due to a lot of the wood still there due to the kahler.

Going to send it in to Lee Garver at GMW for a full setup and installation of a floyd rose nut. Going to go with EMGs and making this my heavy metal guitar.

Love the Ferrari Red - originally was going to get it refinished but this color is just so great in real life!

Jesus, that's gorgeous, congrats!!!

Interesting control layout, what's the additional knob for?

Arrrrh, shame to make all those changes! You're not a fan of the Kahler string clamp?

[Mossezhoffen]

Nice! Love it! I'd like to get a ferrari red dinky or soloist with a floyd some day!

[Johnnyryche]

Great looking soloist. Congrats.

That's great!
Love the old ones.
The one I just picked up also has the VVT knob config.
2 in a week for you, I need to step up my game. I do have something up my sleeve.
Enjoy!

Red w/ black hardware is a classic. I also love how the headstock isn't red. Nice!
