Thanks! Even though it's a 2005 it is most definitely 80s Revival.

Re: Couldn't quite resist it...

After a weeks worth of "drama"...seller has guitar in his shop and is suppose to ship today. Fingers crossed, saying my prayers...

 
Re: Couldn't quite resist it...

Along with the Iceman and the 5150 Combo; I'm feeling pretty "set" at the moment. Prior to my divorce 2.5 years ago I was down to a sweet '82 Gibby LP Standard Modified. an '89 Fender Custom Shop Floyd Rose Charcoal Burst Stratocaster and a '78 JMP 2104 and was feeling pretty satisfied. Trying to focus on more playing and less buying and projects! After a long time in the darkness I'm seeing the light again.

Thx! I'll take some better pics tomorrow. It's a great guitar. Plugged it in and played it as soon as I got home. Love the pickups and tones and it pretty much feels like the GITD in all aspects. Neck may be a bit smaller/less wide but I'm quite pleased with it.
 
Re: Couldn't quite resist it...

Thank you! Played it for about an hour last night and it's a sweet player. Wasn't sure I would like the Screamin' Demon but I actually dig both pickups and they pair very well together. Glad I made the decision to buy it.

Custom Shop TRC...but it sure as Hell doesn't go with the guitar....



Looks like it took about 16 months to build...

I've determined that I'm not a fan of the Screamin' Demon...so she's going to be full on DeMartini with a CS MJ RTM!!!
