I really like the way they've improved the design, the logo and headstock look spot on now. Fucking dings in the guitar when it arrived though? I'll bet money that it was flown over in perfect condition until Parcelfarce got their hands on it.

Weird. Pics are on the SS.org uploader as photobucket was playing silly buggers earlier. I know some people have had problems with seeing pics from it before.

Nice one dude. I dunno, there is a part of me that wants it to be great and i will be happy Aug is building nice guitars, ya know? Even though there is a lot of ill feeling i kinda want him to succeed for old times sake.

When I looked through the thread I saw all the support he was being given, and you can actually see him turn away from the input that he specifically asked for after around 10 pages. It's a weird thing.

Anyway, not sullying thread, I am genuinely happy for Thom that he has his guitar, and that is all that matters. It's all that has ever mattered.

The dots on the neck don't look centered. Is that intentional or just the picture?

I worked out the solo in that fuck aug video a while ago while cruising youtube in the wee hours. I need to get a hobby or something.

Oh wait.
