The entire track was written, recorded, mixed, and burnt within 48 hours, AND he had two teeth pulled in that time. This guy is AMAZING. Previously an Ibanez endorsee, but i stole him ADMIN EDIT: And................ Perry- you know the picture rule. Let's try to follow it, ok? Thanks.

crafty Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 Dude, after I win my first "personal injury" case, I'm comin' your way to have you build me a mean machine. I just gotta take some lessons so I'd be worthy of playing such a fine piece. That Superstrat turned out even more amazing than I imagined when you showed it off back in February. This is why even after all the ascerbic replies to dumb newbs (like me), I can still respect Perry for the artist and perfectionist that he is. Fine work, bet it looks 50 times better in person.

rhoads56 Posted July 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 actually, both the client and i arent happy with the shade of green, so its back in the workshop for a darker top. Should be finished AGAIN by next monday. It is going to be a dark emerald colour. PS I used the LMII spirit based powder stains, and they faded. This is the second time that has happened. BEWARE.

Strange Fruit Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 Once again Perry, you have exceled yourself. Its great to see the results of a true craftsman, and indeed artist at work!

Looking forward to some of your other works in progress being finished, so i can have yet another nice background Matty ← Ive got a team working on stuff like that right now: new web site, desktops, sound clips, brochures, bla bla. Which picture did you use as a background?? Ive got two guitars really close to being finished, and another three that SHOULD be done within 4-6 weeks. Made a LOT of changes at the workshop, dropped a store (repairs), so ive got less money, but more time now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TenderSurrender Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 Hey lets calm down here... i agree with Obi, i didnt know what a heating booth is and it WAS a resonable question...

jmrentis Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 (edited) Great looking guitar Perry, I can't wait to see it redone, I'm sure it will be even better. I like the shape more than usual for that style, I don't know what it is, but it's very nice. I decided to change my other post for reasons that were mentioned! I would not want anothers members thread ruined by you know who again! I shouldn't have posted what I did. sorry Perry! But nice stuff anyways, be sure to post some more pics once you've refinished it again! Also Is there a volute on it? I don't know if there is or not, I would assume not all customers want one, although I think it's better to have one, now that I know more about them thanks to you and your work! Later.

rhoads56 Posted July 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 GSR is easy to spot. I PM'd wes yesterday. Taking a look at his posts, he seemed to get too comfortable, too quickly, had a big "welcome me im new" thread, etc etc. My other pick for this GSR charade is the new member ACG. yup, there is a volute.

suicidesolutionbaby Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 Thanks for that. I have no idea why you just suspended me. Here's the kicker... I concur I'm a paranoid type, I surf via SurfShield ( http://www.surfshield.net ). I can assure you that alleged information you have for me is nothing even close to the gsr member you have banned. ...I can't believe how quickly you all "assumed" you knew who I was. DISGUSTED and I'll be making damn sure every person I can reach will learn of this. Now go pick on ACG - seems he's your next target. Obi.

TenderSurrender Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 As wes has already said lets let this situation pass and continue with the orignal topic... If you really want to continue arguing suicidesolutionbaby go and PM a mod... this is not the thread to do it, AND if you are so disgusted... why did you return NOW BACK ON SUBJECT Thats a GREAT guitar you have built... PLEASE make sure you post pictures when you have done the changes ~~ Slain Angel ~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drak Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 Be sure you tell them why we have to be so on-guard these days. Beautiful guitar Perry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TenderSurrender Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 Just latley things have been getting out of hand so the mods just aint taking any chances, Now lets all go back to playing nicely and staring at the really pretty guitar ~~ Slain Angel ~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
