besides the knobs (needs white witches), that is a phenomenally beautiful guitar.

Thinking of swapping covers and knobs to match the mustang, just so they look even better together :)

Aaah love that duo - did Fran have it before noirie? Like to own it one day if only to scrape some fran dna from under the pickguard and clone an invincible army of glass wielding warriors.

Please, for the love of Christ and Everything, trace that pickguard for me.

I will love you for it.

It was once a wangstang, restored by DGNR8, so you tell me :p

I'm torn between having a clear out of guitars and using the money to buy a White falcon, or to just save up and get one. I have too many guitars though...

The nut is an earvana nut, meant to improve intonation, I'm a bit skeptical myself though, I just couldn't find a normal 41mm nut at the time, and I wanted to play my new toy!
