Hawt!....

I mean.... Ya explorers can cost more than comparable Pauls.... But wow! That's a far cry from a husk. I'd hesitate to pay more than 4 bills for that. This screams of drunken, wife beater, domestic violence thangs....

Congrats on the new Axe!

I have found that If your strings are actually touching the backside of the bridge(which probably doesn't happen all that often) it can give sort of a false reading, or even change intonation a little bit, especially with different string gauges. It's not a lot, but it can be a problem...

I have/had all of my Gibby Pauls ( 7 of them? ) in Drop-B with the EB skinny top heavy or beefy bottom and never any issues with intonation or tuning. Do you top wrap? Does it make it better or worse? I had to top wrap 1 or 2 of mine because the string angle was touching the back of the bridge...

Today the LZZY Hale bastard.

Hell ya!

Today it's the pretty one.

It is! It was born with wooden knobs too which I just couldn't stand. Bridge Pickup and knobs are all I have changed on this one.

The cherry BFG it is.
