That limited edition is DA BOMB! How many were made? Was that a GC special?

Here's mine, just finished her today.

Specs: USACG neck, assymetrical contour, 1-piece, reissue 50's body, Fralin Blues Special in bridge, rio grande in neck, modern bridge (not planned, it just sounded better on this build.) And of course, a blackguard.

Hey Rick, welcome to the TDPRI!

For those who don't know Rick, he is a fantastic musician, guitar player, steel picker and teacher. He is well known and highly regarded on the Steel Guitar Forum. I highly recommend his teaching material to anyone interested in the non-pedal steel guitar.

Anyway, I hope I have embarrassed you sufficiently, Rick! All the best, I look forward to your posts.

Heres my 07 baja, bit bashed round the top edge from some cymbal clashes... i get over excited at gigs sometimes.

Its got a cut off switch now between the two pots and i just got that red label case off ebay for it aswell.

Sprayed the flimsy stock pickguard with something i found in the garage to make it look like bakelite before i get a real one...

WOW... nice blondes everyone, here's mine..

boris bubbanov · July 19th, 2008, 10:51 PM

Thinking about doing this light ash trem Strat body in this color.

spankdplank · July 20th, 2008, 12:43 AM

An all stock 68 cap neck and a home built mid 50's inspired blonde, which is not as white and has more wood grain showing in person. Two of my favorites. I play the 68 at home a lot and gig with the homebuilt.

wow. they absolutely nailed the color of those 52 RI's back in the day. that looks even better than the nocaster in those picks. grain matching is great too. looks like a one piece. that's a real beauty you've got there.

sweet. i've got a 67 with bigsby and it't nice to see someone else flipped the bridge around like me

. having it turned the original way is a bridge pickup disaster waiting to happen. do you have sticking problems with your old bigsby? i can't use mine because some of the strings stick when i wobble the bar...
