Wow dude, that's incredible! Who did that for you? How's she sound?

Donner- 12-04-2007

Thanks Well heres the story page... http://www.tonesafari.com/id17.html I had the body built and the rest are stock parts - I had wanted the neck without dots so I could have Gretsch style thumbies but they were there anyway :cry: Oh it sounds great - both pickups sounds almost acoustic.. the knobs are master volume and blend (I love this) and its very light but well balanced ......

Very cool read dude! That's an awesome guitar. Shame about the Bigsby, but it makes sense. Where's the pickup selector switch? Do you have one? I tried to send that guy an e-mail about a custom neck but the address doesn't work anymore. Any ideas? Thanks dude!

I tried to send that guy an e-mail about a custom neck but the address doesn't work anymore. Any ideas? Thanks dude! Yeah I think the Lonnie Bigsby could be done with some forethought No the second knob is a 'blender' between the two pickups , no switches to hit... Yeah I lost track of Doug..... Hmmm where might we find a guitar builder who likes to do gretchified stuff, hmmmmm :wink: I would like to try a fancier version glued neck/thumb inlays etc....

Dude those videos are incredible! But you're f'in insane bro! :P Nice playing though, and beautiful guitar. Sounds awesome too. I've been trying to find a good custom builder for a while. Basically, I need someone to make an exact replica of the neck on my Green Buddy (my Green hollowbody in the other thread). That means the same funky custom headstock, different neck pocket dimensions, the crazy paint job/finish, all of it. I'm having a rough time. There's one dude I'm talking with here in Los Angeles, we'll see how it pans out. That Doug dude did an awesome job on yours, I bet he could do a good job on mine too. We'll see though.

F-holes on a V, with TV Jones pickups on top of that... how can that be beat? :)
