This looks really cool, kinda missing theatre at the moment.

How long is the run?

i thought about "relic'ing" the stripe but figured it's a $10 sticker essentially, and since i don't plan to put any clear coat over it, it's probably going to get its own wear over the years. i'm hoping it yellows a bit actually.

last update in this thread unless/until i decide to do a refin. the second comp stripe i ordered came in (the first never showed up 6 weeks on, so i cancelled), so i placed it over the weekend. the completed before/after for this guitar's journey: Bronco20230530a.jpg sorry, didn't have a chance to r...

very useful.


and wow, shads, lifting from teh hurbetz... does us all proud, actually.

Oh fuck yeah, that looks sooooo much better now. I am so glad it's got a proper home now! it is definitely my go-to at the moment for just sitting on the couch and noodling, the tone is great unplugged. it also records pretty nice, too. thanks for the kudos, gents. i may have walked myself back fro...

photo-bomb incoming. i had some free time last night, and everything but the black comp stripe i'd ordered had arrived (that stripe was ordered almost 2 months ago). the red tort guard was sold by Paul C's in 'Frisco (they hate it when you call it that) which must be long defunct as i couldn't find ...
