Fantastic to see it come together like that and the backing track seems somehow to be very appropriate.  You must be extremely proud to have that as your 'baby'.   I too look forward to hearing/seeing it being played.  Best - Dave.

Great to see some "young pups" taking something to seriously and doing such a great job.

I'd recommend they run away from home and go join Paul Reed Smith for a few years - They can just show him the resume you made for them! smile

yeah that was my goal to see if they have what it takes and more importantly to prove to themselves they have what it takes. For me I am convieneced they are incredibly talented after this effort and I hope they continue. I say from what I see in this guitar and how it plays the hell with working for PRS they should open their own shop. They started from sets of great sounding blocks of wood, finishing done by him also. The only thing they did not make was the hardware. It also has a set of Joe B new signiture pups installed. Maybe some members should give them a call? Thanks for the comments cheers Ron

If I was in that position I would take you up on that. I can't imagine better than a one off masterpiece that they have created.

Come on the Blades (sorry Idolbone just had to borrow your line)
