GuitarMan686 Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Beautiful Finish man. It makes me feel all warm and sunny like a nice summer day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregP Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Awesome-tastic! It's not common to see a goldtop-like (not totally, yours has that burst!) Strat. Using the right knobs and a TOM was the perfect touch to give it a true "goldtop" vibe, otherwise it would have just been a gold strat. Amazing! Are those top ferrule-things from Carvin, also?

CudBucket Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Looks great! I love that color. Can't wait to see your next! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlGeeEater Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Is it just me or maybe the picture, but the bridge pickup looks a tad crooked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alarung Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Is it just me or maybe the picture, but the bridge pickup looks a tad crooked ← I think the angled TOM may be throwing you off. The pickups are parallel and perp to the strings, from the looks of things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am looking at the top of the bridge humbucker, not near the TOM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregP Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 Looks a bit crooked to me, too, but it might just be an illusion of the picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maiden69 Posted June 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 GregP the top ferrules are not Carvin, they are steel rivets that I have used on all my TOM guitars so far. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v195/Maiden69/DSC01774.jpg AlGee, it's the pic, I use a square to istall the covers always, after messing up my blue ash guitar after trying to eyeball it. and I make sure that the e string cuts right in the middle of the M on EMG. Here is another angle, I haven't taken any new pics, have been busy taking the folks out to DC. Cud, read above, there will be no next in a while, I won't be here for a year, but deployed at Korea, I don't know if you noticed, but I made 2 this last 3 weeks, the other one is here http://projectguitar.ibforums.com/index.ph...opic=17150&st=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT On a side note the rings are angled not flat one, that might be what got you, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
