The revised Gary Moore


Recommended Posts

Our own Murkat (Jay Kolanda) built me a Gary Moore special from a donor body he found.  The veneer top was killer.  The guitar played great.  It sounded fantastic.  The lacquer finish melded to my cloth chair and the finish was ruined. 

This is what I had in mind.  Stike is on the case.  Hoping I'm playing this one at my May 19th gig.

Just a killer custom finish.

Wonderful! Now you’ve got to get some Stike style spandex for the gig. B)

May is shaping up to be a good month for you.

Many happy "returns," so to speak, if you will, as it were.

Right back at 'ya, my friend. 

What do you think about chrome cover(s)?

I think covering original DiMarzios should be considered a hate crime.
I am wondering what it would look like with black rings, however.

The first thing I thought was black rings would really set that finish off ... But who am I to say?    :)

Those are original tapped Will Boggs GregWinds.  So, no worries there.  I think black rings might be needed too.  Thanks, guys.

I've had covers on a set of 1980s Hamer paf's. In my Super Pro. Pickups are now out of the guitar and the covers off.

I have covers on a pair of 10K Slammers in my Newport. Dont hate me.

The black pickup surrounds will arrive on Wednesday.

You had to order black rings?
I thought every guitar player had a drawer full of black rings and Gibson speed knobs like I do.

I only had cream or black for a carved top.  You know, the only thing you need is what you don't have.  The story of my life...

Well, my pics aren't stellar, but I want everyone to know how killer this finish is.  Ben, a/k/a "Stike", transformed this guitar.  It always played and sounded phenomenal.  It has the Will Boggs GregWinds in it.  They are tapped and sound killer.  My buddy Peter from Chellee Guitars made the final modifications and set it up.  It's just fantastic.

Played it at practice last night.  Stike is the man, folks.  The finish is flawless.
