  1. Crackle on the Kraken! Crackle on the Kraken!
  2. The headstock does say "Kitchen", doesn't it? Kind of inspiring, but my table is oak and only about half as thick.
  3. Sucks to come home to a note on the door instead of a guitar-sized box on the porch.
  4. It's like having a time machine! Congrats!
  5. Just got a similar one a few months ago, or I'd be all over that. GLWTS!
  6. Congrats! Congrats for sure! I also picked one up last year, but at more like the going rate. What the hell, it was nearby. My bridge isn't like yours, but the good things you mention mostly apply to mine, too, so I guess they knew what they were doing over at the factory. Be sure to post when you figure out what to do about the pickup, or the bridge.
  7. His tone is reviled? I consider his tone to be one of my favorites. Classic MXR DIstortion + with some marshall grit added, and usually some tape delay in the mix. I've heard copious criticism of his tone over the years, much of which I've ignored as it is a subjective assessment. Let me guess - criticism by people whose names I wouldn't recognize and whose music I've never bought? That's how it usually is.
  8. Obviously I need to pick up my goodness game so that Santa will be as good to me as he was to you. Congratulations and enjoy!
  9. Speaking for myself, I have assurance from the Ultimate authority that the magic is coming my way (eventually), so I'm fairly relaxed about that. The swag, not so much.
  10. Actually, I was kind of thinking along the same lines, except that it's an adolescent Special - body not quite filled out, horns and humbuckers still developing, that sort of thing. REALLY impressed with my first few days with mine.
  11. Are you kidding me? How did I not know about this when I ordered my Shishkov?
  12. So it's Mike that's not ready with the damned shirts already?
  13. That's some hard work. I've never had to change my shirt once, let alone four times.
  14. Sweet! Congrats. Check in later on your observations about learning to add that low string in your playing, I'm curious about that myself.
  15. So if Hamers' catch phrase was "The Ultimate", would Shishkov be "The Definitive"? "The Uttermost"? "The Paramount"? "The Consummate"? Also, how soon before the book? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcOSwyQkzYo "The Uddermost". Apologies if she's the daughter of anyone here.
  16. I don't quite understand - is it too soon to start talking about the Kahler I'm going to install myself on mine once I get it?
