Dood Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Congrats, looking forward to seeing which finish you go for! As Adam says, both my Shukers are finished in the Mystic Dream flip paint. It looks fantastic in bright daylight! I did think about the Gold/Red flip too - but Jon had enough paint left over from my 7 string to do the 6 string all over as well! (I wouldn't be surprised if there's more left! WOOO!! do it!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe i'll nick your idea of Gold/Red (Or TVRs Green/Orange one haha!) when i finally get one and i can "borrow" a few designs from your two Just kidding! Wouldn't do ANYTHING Shuker related with telling you, probably because of the excitement! Edited March 5, 2011 by AttitudeCastle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayne58 Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 That will be a stunner, I like the idea of the 62 jazz neck. I have a Shuker PJ nearing completion with similar neck dimensions and will post some pics when it arrives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
