Explorer: Satin BK refinish & Fiber Optic Sidemarkers done

[Monty-Jay]

Hey guys...So I'm pretty much done with everything, all the hardstuff anyway. There are a few little things I need to clean up and adjust some setup stuff on the guitar, but otherwise it's pretty much done. Here are a few pics:

That looks really awsome. Is it a Gibson, or a knock off? I love the fiber optic side markers....really cool.

Very cool! How do the LED's get turned on and off though? I'm assuming there's a switch on the headstock??

Hats off to you man. I think I remember when you were first inquiring about it and I seriously doubted you. Well done.

Thanks...I don't care for the DP pickguards, but full body plates are a different matter Here's another of my EXPs:

It's an ESP LTD EXP200

They turn on/off via a mini toggle switch that is currently in the control cavity. I have a bunch of different options for power and switching, but I didn't want to drill a hole in this guitar so I'm gonna try and find a 25K push/pull pot...otherwise, I'll just mount the switch.

Hats off to you man. I think I remember when you were first inquiring about it and I seriously doubted you. Well done.

Thanks man...I had doubts myself but I'm happy with the results, especially since I went into this with no knowledge.
