Is that a screamin demon? Much congratulation dude... I'm pretty jealous. I love the logo, is that inlayed?
 
Re: Couldn't quite resist it...

Thanks! Will eagerly be awaiting its arrival. As Tom Petty so eloquently stated - "The Waiting Is The Hardest Part"!
 
Re: Couldn't quite resist it...

Thanks for kind words. I always wanted a BC Rich Gunslinger in Snakeskin but this puppy looks to be a couple levels above that and has a clear Lynch Vibe...plus it's a Maple Board!!!

Avoid the embarrassment and simply send any unwanted, no longer popular and neglected 80s/90s Graphic Finishes my way!!! ;)

That is, in the US, on the other hand, if you're living anywhere in the EU, transatlantic shipping would be murder. Y'know what, just send it over to me instead :D

Not really sure as I purchased it from a retailer. Whoever ordered it back in the day did a nice job with picking their options though. Definitely looks nice and hopefully it'll play and sound as good as it looks. Below is what the seller's ad stated...

LOL!! Never seen that finish before.. Nor do I want to.... Wangcaster aside.


Muttzn, SCORE!! totally killer bro!! Jealous, I am.... I love the inlays and the finish, but if I personally was having one done, I wouldnt have chose the 2 together.. Ya dont see many maple boards either. That just reeks of coolness... and aquanet...
