Stunning collection Cai [/quote][/size] [size=4]It’s an original USA made Conklin Sidewinder custom “melt-top”. Most Conklins you see in the UK are the Groove Tools Korean(?) models. Have a look at some of the crazy work they do here: [url="http://www.conklinguitars.com/"]http://www.conklinguitars.com/[/url][/size] [size=4]I’m thinking of thinning the herd down a bit more and this may be on that list with the Fender FMT.

Ghosts Over Japan Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Wow thank you so much for posting extra pictures that is absolutely gorgeous! Yeah I've seen standard Korean one but never anything like that! I'm gonna have to have a gander at the website now One cheeky shot of the W&T's gorgeous deep blue coat?

Ghosts Over Japan Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Oh man [size=4] W&T Never really appealed to me (I know they're good basses just not normally to my styling) but this is just sublime. I'm going to have to admit it... that is one of the single nicest looking basses I've ever seen. Thanks for the pictures, that really is a work of art.

CamdenRob Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Where is it that you live? What times are you usually out of the house? Seriously though what a beautiful collection of basses... Don't suppose you could be persuaded to part with that wal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Even if you knew where I lived in Aberdeen you'd stilll have to get past the dozen or so killer guard haggis I have stationed 24 hours a day out side.... Thanks everyone on the compliments. It's taken a fair few years and lots of overtime to build this little lot up. My wife has not only encouraged me to buy them but in one case (the Ritter) told me I [u]must [/u]buy it! From the first time I saw a Wal to getting my mits on mine last year was about a 25 year wait......I'm not quite ready to part with it just yet.... ...especially as its got pretty blue LED's!

I've been toying with the idea of having a Wal built. I did send an email last week but the 17 month waiting list is putting me off a bit! still better than 25 years! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t tell everyone! Although the haggis do make such a squealy growling noise you probably could work out the location just by listening and following your ears!
