    Tastefully done!
    Try a Warrior. They're very close to a Strat/Dinky feel thanks to the top front horn (though it does hang a bit differently - I find them more comfy than Dinkys/Soloists).

    You can also sit with them very easily just like a Strat - probably more comfy since the horn isn't jabbing you.


    Great refin idea.

          It looks like they did a great job. Do you mind me asking how much the refin cost you?

            Thanks again for all the compliments ! And I have to agree with what Newc said. Try one, you'll be surprised at how comfortable Warriors are.

            The refin was $650 including return shipping, which I don't think is too bad for a pro job. 3 week turn around and they're really cool people at BC Guitars, too. I did have a few minor issues with it, but all in all a very good job and I'm happy with it.

              3 week turnaround? Really?

                Looks great the way it is...but i have to comment that the first few seconds i noticed the great reverse sharky's i thought..."what if those
                black stripes on the body were curved in the same angle as the MOP
                sharkys? Maybe? I wish i could photoshop what im talking about...
                but either way..I NEED A WARRIOR NOW !!

                  Yup, no shit. That was the estimate they gave me and I was shocked it actually happened. About a week in, they sent me pics of the paint job to make sure the design was how I wanted it. After that, they did the clear coats and sent it back.

                    Ya know what I did ? I used the Custom Shop Generator to make me a plain white WR1. I saved the pic, then used the paint program to try different thicknesses and placements of the stripes. Easy as pie, Dude.

                    Having that really helped when I talked to Shadoe about the estimate to get my guitar done. I sent her the pic, so she'd know what I was talking about. I'll use the same method next time I go for custom paint.
