bubs_42 Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 It sure does, what a waste... LOL I still don't know what he is going to do with those extra frets, we may need video as proof he know how to use them.

cmatthes Posted July 2, 2020 Posted July 2, 2020 Mike is expanding his horizons and getting into the mirror business these days...
gorch Posted July 2, 2020 Posted July 2, 2020 Lovely garden. It’s a shame its on the back of a guitar.

Jakeboy Posted July 12, 2020 Posted July 12, 2020 I foresee a maple neck my next Shishkov which is 0117.

I’m still shocked at how my neck fits me based on me describing my preferences to him.

Not quite a Nocaster, but like a nice, big ‘59 LP/Flying V Style. Super comfortable- Mike nailed it! I was worried about communicating my desire for a thick neck to Mike on number 96. I sent the specs for my Ibby Paul Gilbert Fireman, which is beefy, but how does a pair of numbers translate, really? Fortunately, on my visit to Shishkov World HQ two summers back, I got to play the Maverick prototype. "This," was my neck request, "this." So he had a reference pretty handy. Just what I wanted. Turns out to be meatier than my Fireman!
