  • A long waiting is over..

    Hi! I've been lurking around this forum for the last 1,5 years and learned a lot(!), and now it's time to make my first bigger post: My new custom RR! I received her about a month ago from Matt's Music Center but because I don't own a digital camera this has taken a while. Whole progress from ordering to playing took about 11 months, and it definitely was worth it!

    Specs: Full Korina 24 fret Rhoads, ORF, Speed neck (KV-2), Iron cross inlays and frets 20 to 24 scalloped. And yes, I play mostly metal and heavier stuff.


    Here we go, sorry about the low picture quality:



    And here's a better pic of the scalloped neck that I got from the Custom Shop, yet without a serial [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

      Oh man, no serial #? Did you order it that way or did they just forget?

        Beautiful RR, man. That thing is just incredible looking. The lack of a serial number seems really strange.

        Regardless, that is one hell of a guitar - congrats. [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

                        Great looking guitar!
                        Looks great with that inlays and love the 24frets on RR!

                          The guitar is very nice. Probably one of the nicest RR's I have ever seen. Congrats! [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

                          Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright, that God may love thee. Speak the truth always, even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless and do no wrong.

                            I forgot to ask.
                            How does it sound with full Korina and is it light weight?
                            and what amp(s) do you use?
                            I would love to own a full Korina body/neck guitar too. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
