I see we are steering the Standard thread away from it's original direction so I thought it was time to set this to light.

Looking forward to my #??/12 to arrive. I'm hoping for #11, that way no one can ever look at it or even touch it. /emoticons/default_huh.png/emoticons/default_happy.png/emoticons/default_tongue.png/emoticons/default_cool.png/emoticons/default_ph34r.png

I got in MIRACULOUSLY late on the initial run. I really thought I'd miss out. Fingers crossed mine is number 12.

Shall we christen ourselves The Dirty Dozen? I wonder how many non-HFCers are in on this first run?

Christmas at the HFC will be interesting!

But... without idle speculation, innuendo, rumors, exaggeration and outright bullshit the interwebs would grind to a halt!

 
First run = 25 = dirty two dozen and one.

That's right, I'm bursting bubbles cause I'm in the second run! /emoticons/default_biggrin.png

 
Christmas time will be awesome here at the HFC. Those of us fortunate enough to get in on this run will be posting pics left and right. I wonder if the pickup decision has been finalized?

Isn't that quilt fucking insane. While sanding and working with it, it was actually distracting, Every 10-20 minutes you hold it up going "Jesus Christ, I know we are used to seeing this, but isn't this top and headstock fucking amazing?" then someone would say "Hey, get back to fucking before I sick the dogs on you!". Where else would you see this at 6:00 in the morning? Glad you changed the pickups. I'm not a fan of (mass produced) Duncans.

Another go around on this guitar now that it has had some really nice Custom wound Manlius pickups installed. As you may recall this was Elvis when he arrived....
