The Serviceman today....Jazzblaster??

Post by Sublimedo »

Nope,not talking bout Matt. I'm talking about the Serviceman I got off Rob Og back when I was a noob back in like Sept of '06
back then it looked kinda like this

-sorry easiest picture I can find.

but now in 2008...

oh dear...

here it is with a brand new mint guard


The old guard was cool and all. and I still have it. Buts its been tortured enough.
At least it gives me a chance for some funnysims courtesy of the servicemen makers.

yep this is under the chrome. notice how the black line is painted for a faux wbw.

Here it is with it's pornstar tan.

Ultimately this is a great piece of craftsmanship.

Ill take pics when its done. Then its full on SY from here on out.

oh well, i guess you've got enough guitars that it doesn't really hurt to experiment.
