I can't just leave well enough alone.

[80's_Metal]

I like guitars that are different than everyone elses...... for the most part anyhow.

So I tinkered with the Gibson Faded V and got her all souped up today.

Before and after.

Nice choice. Change anything else out, besides the pickguard & truss rod cover?

Ya, I really like what you've done. I think it looks MASSIVELY better with the black. :bigok:

That's really cool. Gives the V an SG-ish vibe.

Thanks guys! I like it more as well!

I'm sure there might be some folks who like the white better.

I may go back to it someday, but for now I am digging the dark look.

Those are some awesome roses! All the more striking coming out of the xerascape. Oh..the black guard is more Metal. Nice job.

Should have come out that way from it's release. Now it's got attitude!

Sweet. Amazing what a difference a simple pickguard change can have. (And truss rod cover.)

Makes it look like an SG's evil cousin.
