Truckstop Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 Well that's very sexy indeed! Nicest ACG I think I've seen! Truckstop Quote
ead Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 I'm sure you will love it. The wait between knowing it's ready and getting the bass is torture. Quote
Mykesbass Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 Fabulous board and the combination of that and a plain black body is gorgeous. Great choice. Quote
TheGreek Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 [quote name='Mykesbass' timestamp='1357650830' post='1925945'] Fabulous board and the combination of that and a plain black body is gorgeous. Great choice. [/quote] Got to agree about the fretboard - one of the nicest I've seen.. Quote
GreeneKing Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) [quote name='Truckstop' timestamp='1357645515' post='1925778'] Well that's very sexy indeed! Nicest ACG I think I've seen! Truckstop [/quote] I'm sorry but, as nice as Mike's beast undoubtedly is, you must be blind. My opinion of course I prefer my wood naked. Saying that this is one of my ACGs but Alan changed the hardware to black for me. Edited January 9, 2013 by GreeneKing Quote
lettsguitars Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Ah that headstock looks the same so I guess not. Looks more squarer at the end than I recall. Quote
Cosmo Valdemar Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 [i]Veeery[/i] nice... I would love to hear what it sounds like! Quote
sk8 Posted January 9, 2013 Author Posted January 9, 2013 [quote name='lettsguitars' timestamp='1357736432' post='1927441'] Is that a new headstock shape? [/quote] It's the headstock for the graft range Quote
