I finally took my old HWY1 in for some upgrades and a badly needed setup.
This will mainly be used for sweet clean tones and basic rock, grunge & hair metal tones.
I aged the dials and pup covers myself years back with hot black coffee, and had Graphech saddles and a better bridge bucker installed. (sorry Seymour!) Pickgaurd is a naturally aged white...almost parchment.
The colour changes from almost a Merlot to chocolate depending on the light.
Its not just straight paint either, you can see the wood grain through it as seen in one of the pics.
