NGD Black Baja! Finally!!!!

[paulitik]

About time it showed up. She came in this afternoon. Nicely setup out of the box, nice low action, no buzzing, pickups sound fantastic. All that and she weighs a svelte 7.4 lbs. I can't get over how great the neck is.

Now if you excuse me, time to break this beauty in.

Sorry for the crappy iPhone pics. I'll try to get some better ones up later.

Beauty. Congrats and enjoy.

 

[Slipslick]

Congratulations! Very nice!

 

[El Reclusa]

Congrats! I want one, but with a white guard...oh yes.

Congrats. It looks sweeeeet!

 

[telepath]

Holy frijole!

Lovely.

 

[Telepi]

Very nice. Congratulations.

How's the neck feel? Duh. I already know. It's a Baja.

I was just looking at that strap the other day. Now I feel like it would be unoriginal. Great looking guitar!

I bought mine sight unseen, too. I still rave about the sound from this Blond beauty. Mine weighs 8.8 lb., and it's a BBB (Big Beautiful Blonde). I guess the big ones are from the first 4 years. I think a white pickguard will make it look like a tuxedo penguin. But very nice stock, too.

Here's to your Baja. I will lift a bottle of cold brew. May you Twang in style!

Ha Ha! Not sure many of our trans-atlantic cousins will pick up on that one, but I for one will second that!

I think that black pickguard looks nice.
Is that a single ply?
or a b/w/b?

I like the total blacked out look.

It's a single ply. I like it too. I was thinking of going with a tort or mint guard, but I'm going to leave it. My wife was a goth kid, so of course she loves it.

This thing sound great. Needs a little fiddling with, but it was almost set up perfect.

Makes me think of the black No-casters of the late 2000s.

nice.

Interesting. Is the Baja a form of the Nocaster? Especially when comparing it to the 2012 CS Nocaster with its modern features.

They share many features but cost about 1/4 the cost. They ARE quality though.
