Who got #11. You wont be able to touch it or even look at it.

That would be me! I laughed/gasped at the same time when I got Mikes email today. Life can often take some funny and ironic turns at times, no?

SO stoked..!

Getcha some Dimarzio 11 knobs to go on it.

Nah, that ain't gonna happen.

The runs are all running together.... some of the things for run 2 have already been done in order to make things more efficient (fingerboard slotting, rough cutting necks ect, ). The only real difference between the runs is how far out the delivery time is. If there are still questions about your finish, I will contact you to get the final decisions made once your guitar is at that point. Also, not everyone's email update has gone out yet... still working on them. Thanks for all of the great feedback and encouragement! You guys rock!

Stop saying "the runs." You're gonna make me have to run to the toilet.

I have Amber/Gold Chickenheads waiting to go on mine. :huh:^_^B)

oop...that did it...

Sorry, Mike. I really didn't mean to use the board to carry on a personal conversation. I just didn't want to tie you up with a superfluous question.

I'm about to pee myself!

You should swap the guitar out on this one. It's the only one you own that is uglier than the knobs. Bleeeccchhh! :D

It's Fugly but sounds Fantastic! Those guitars look a lot bigger in photos than in person and feel just like a V.

It's not for everyone and I did not think I wanted one until I saw this one. In fact I hated it and was perplexed by Dean's step in that direction.

It does fit in line with the ML and the Cadillac in the way that they are 1/2 a V and 1/2 an Explorer and 1/2 a Les Paul and 1/2 an Explorer. The Splittail is 1/2 a V and 1/2 an SG to me. Gibbers first stab at this done for Jim Peterik is even uglier.

Oh man I hope I'm 0033. I've got a real thing for that number. I even worked it out with my baby girl to show up unexpectedly on March 3rd.

I feel like I walked up to the plate, and pointed out over the left field wall! Heard from Mike that I'm 0033, and it just happened that way in the order list.

Destiny, I tell ya. B)

I'll tip a cold Rolling Rock in your direction, Soli'd!

I'm going to pre-pre-pre-order a Shishkov Standard Bass with the S/N 0531.

After 30 years of working with different woods, it still amazes me how each piece has its own personality and beauty. I just wish the lighting did the tops in these shots justice, they are simply beautiful.

Once again Thanks to FGJ for the assist with the coloration.

First run = 25 = dirty two dozen and one.

That's right, I'm bursting bubbles cause I'm in the second run! :D

So that would be a bakers dozen + a dozen ;)

Ya'll know of course, there's going to be a great wealth of pictures and stories and lots of happy people in HFC 2015.

I think RichRS6 mentioned in the opaque thread he was going for white with black binding like 0020 on pg. 38 of the Book. Did you see a pic of it?
