Che Posted December 5, 2015 Author Share Posted December 5, 2015 What went wrong Dad ? Ya know, me from another continent, humor wise can be challenging to get it Here is the sound check; it sounds OK-ish through the Plexi Tone on my Digitech RP70. I will get some better vintage pup in the future maybe Entwistle or else ... https://soundcloud.com/papa-dusko/harley-benton-st-20-relic-plexitone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GarethFlatlands Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 I like it Love natural wood finish guitars, I don't know why more companies don't offer it as a standard finish over painted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Che Posted December 7, 2015 Author Share Posted December 7, 2015 I agree, the bass makers sure go much more into plain oiled wooden bodies which looks awesome. Guitar makes just love that darn lacker and paint don't they I was thinking to make a few relic bodies like this and also relic the hardware and then sell it on ebay as a DIY Kit. Will see when I have time for this though ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
