oh, it kinda seemed like sublimedo didn't have the paint yet and/or the color hadn't been decided.
whatever. maybe i'll put in the classifieds for the cost of shipping. i'll be damned if i can think of something else to use it for.

Neck pocket is a strat neck pocket.

I have a couple of cans of Oly white too if he wants it white rather then black.

It should be a crisp White innit. With a Black Pickguard and Maple Neck it would be BOOTY TOWN.
MAPLE ON B/W?

WRONG.

Yeah, it could always be sent to RobOG, who could then send it back and with his terrible luck with the post office it'd probably look relic'd in no time.

Anywhere, these are the two main photoshops I had at the time.

Excuse the "finish" on the white photoshop, I used a very silly method to make it white.

I think we need a poll... I really can't decide the colour, any colour at all would be a pleasure, in fact no colour would be too. Help me!
