Yar, I see that mid-pos single coil on the Jazzo! Groovie Play for a Day time lolz.

Let ol' Ultra be the first to say you CAN have too much binding in the collection, tho.

I just got a black AVRI jag with a tort pickguard. Thinking about swapping the pickguard and pickup covers with black ones. Anyone got a photo of one? I'm thinking it could be awesome, or really shit, depending on your mood.

That won't make it look like a Gothic Les Paul, will it?

to me, the appeal of that guitar is the play of black versus all that luscious chrome. i got tort on my oly white jag, and that works great. i need to do a new round-up of my current shortscales. it's been a while. . .
