Kids were so much simpler in my day when the only question was how MUCH blood-spatter paint do I put on the cheap explorer copy I just cut into a star shape...

Nice! I looked at his site. Nice work. That's one thing I lose out on by living in a rural area. There aren't any guitar builders within a 3 hour drive. And the only one within three hours only builds acoustic guitars. :(

Keep in mind, with the value of the Canadian dollar you could probably get one for about $1200! :D

I'd never pay that much for an acoustic, ($4500 -$5000, that is..)even if it were a Taylor. I don't play enough acoustically to spend that kind of money on a guitar.

So I'm dropping some Pearly Gates I acquired from my old man and was wondering if any of you guys know where I can find schematics for wiring my LP, so I can bypass one of the tone knobs. I want to put the pick up switch in its place.
I never liked them where Gibsons have them placed.

Just punch the center out of a spent shell and you have a knob!

I'm selling a US Charvel Tele body w/ Sustainor (heavily modified), a ProCo Rat, a BBE Sonic Maximizer 362 and an A/DA Final Phase if anyone is interested.
