I feel the same way about bands like Switchfoot, POD and Red. You have to be a good band first and foremost. I am a Christian and I want musicians who are Christians to make good art so they can be relevant and not the butt of a joke. The band Chevelle actually started out a Christian band, but have gone in a different direction it seems. They can really wail!

DGNR8- ordinarily i'd say keep your eyes peeled for a coronado XII neck but it seems like you have the chops to fix that one back up.

i'm pretty sure someone on here has a XII (prospect, i think?)- maybe he'd be willing to help out with tracings.

Here's what the headstock fix is going to look like.

I was a xian once and the music SUCKED. There was one promising musician at the time named Bob Dylan who had some good albums, but then he renounced the whole thing.

Too late. I already completely dismantled it. I don't want to know what it sounded like. IT WAS SO FUCKERED. Extra body cavities were not enough, no. Under the pick guard was the real agony. It was like opening a guitar case and finding live snakes covered in human feces and remains. I will show pics tomorrow.

Top left (L to R):
Weird plate, messed up guard; neck matches cavity including peeling nitro hunk. Original paint was sunburst.
Second row:
Cleaned for routing; infestation; piece of milk jug nailed in bottom; 20 extra screw on guard holding nothing; DiMarzio (to be sold).
Third row:
Back scratch fever--very rough surface reveals burst and Fullerplast; mystery plate; OHNOZ screwdriver; mystery plate reveals moar termite holes.
Bottom:
Gotoh hell; Frankenstein orthodontia and top hook(!); one enlarged hole; real Fender neck at least; new electronics with GIGANTO cap.

EX-T-REEM CLOSE UP

1. Plastic nailed inside for shielding? Steampunk wet dream?
2. Swimming pool hack rout covered in quarter inch Elmer's Glue pit
3. Phallic worm-hole drilled through the body to back hole (5) for onboard FX?
4. Extra space for christ-knows-waht. Place to store nickels?

Existing bridge set up with cheapo Gibson-style ABS. Pulled out thumb screws--will replace with Mustang bridge or similar. String-through holes filled with black wax, commonly used for furniture filler. Good news: holes are now clear, have brass plates, long pointy knob, string tree.

To do: Rout holes to smooth shape, fill with ash or alder blocks. Sand and sand and sand. Decide on color--prefer something flashy. It does not strike me as a solid color model. Have seen CAR, Placid, IBM, white, or burst. Would also consider silver, gold, copper. Using white guard.

Issues: Need proper bridge, some kind of back plate. May be able to cut and drill mystery plate to fit in back.
