diablo175 Posted May 13, 2015 Author Posted May 13, 2015 Nope, nope and nope.Chris L's blog entry will NOT divulge the most recent decisions re: finish so don't bother.
Spike Posted May 14, 2015 Posted May 14, 2015 I see some quilty goodness on the blog. That top is going to look awesome!Hmmm....greenburst?
Spike Posted May 14, 2015 Posted May 14, 2015 Leaning more towards clown puke burst... Ooh, ooh, ohh. Are you going with green slime?
diablo175 Posted May 17, 2015 Author Posted May 17, 2015 Promise not to post every stupid detail of the build but this is noteworthy as it's the first actual step and details the neck blank which is laminate of hard maple and Honduran mahogany. To paraphrase Papa Johns claim: better ingredients, better guitar. Or at least, that's the hope. http://www.addictguitars.com/?page_id=1254
coolfeel Posted May 17, 2015 Posted May 17, 2015 Jim, that billet your buddy is using for the top is INSANE! Let it shine brother, let it shine!
diablo175 Posted May 17, 2015 Author Posted May 17, 2015 That's the plan, Stan.Trans finish goodness!
Sugartune Posted May 18, 2015 Posted May 18, 2015 ^^^Is that the one for your build, Diablo? That's very nice.ETA, yes I just needed to click the link to find my answer. Everything looks cool indeed. I like all the details, so please don't be afraid to post them.

Sugartune Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 I dunno, looks like it's still 3 years away...oh wait, this isn't Jackson...
diablo175 Posted May 26, 2015 Author Posted May 26, 2015 I dunno, looks like it's still 3 years away...oh wait, this isn't Jackson... Yeah, not even close. That being said, while the final result doesn't justify or excuse the length of time, my CS Jackson is seriously a badass ax. It almost is worth the wait. And Hamer took just about 2 years to deliver my C3 and it had a number of fuck ups. If this Burrito has the mojo, it will set a milestone in quality, true custom specs and turnaround time.

diablo175 Posted May 26, 2015 Author Posted May 26, 2015 Fucking hell! What till you see the Neon, tiger stripe finish Jim is planning to adorn that top with... Oh yeah, got my neon opaque colors ready for an epic clown vomit burst. Then I've requested 20 additional layers of tone-killing clear be apllied to it so it can be nuclear-buffed to a high mirror shine.
