That's a thing of beauty.  Love the single cut and the unique burst.

Show us where the Shishkov touched you on the doll, Johnny.  It's okay.

I can't. I just can't.

That's really tasty. We seem to have similar taste in guitar tones... well-chosen, sir!

I played my second gig with the SC last night. The larger neck (approximately .9" at the first fret) feels great and just a pleasure to play. 7-1/2 pounds balances just right. Charlotte is AMAZING. I mostly play bridge only, but this guitar has a real sweet spot in the middle position; with the bridge in single coil and the neck pickup active, it sounds very much like a Phantom Custom in the neck & middle position. With the bridge on 10, it's very hot - back off a skosh, and she cleans up nicely. Crazy great tones! I was playing through my 112 Vox Bruno amp with a C-Rex speaker. Crystal clear cleans and sustain for days with a little hair from Robert Keeley.

Our drummer even commented on the tone and you know that is just crazy!

Now I need to contact Josh about sourcing more of Charlotte for other axes.

This is one of those guitars that I want to see after ten years of playing, exposure and neglect.  Just sayin'.  It's fantastic.

Love the pillow.  And hanging a mic on your amp keeps a stand out of the way and gets the best sound.  Cool.

It's funny to me but the guitar shape doesn't look as good in the pics on the stand as it does in the pics of you playing it.  

I was thinking the same thing.

I know exactly what you’re saying. I’ve spent hours looking at it.
