It's just the Rebel overexposing
My wife's 40D is more on target.
(not serious, I think the Rebel just obeyed to my apaerture (mis-)setting).

Re: Take some NEW pics of your favorite guitar...
My workhorse.
Started life as a 70's Ibanez Silver Series Strat.
Went through lots of configurations,including a very early "pre-fine tuners" Floyd and emerged as the workshop pickup testing axe.
The idea was;Loosen the strings,unscrew the tailpiece,remove/replace pickup,reassemble. Pickup changes in 2 or 3 minutes.
This version came together around '89.
The paint: Oh boy:eyecrazy:.
I was trying out a new painter. I said "let's see what you've got" a couple of days later he drops in this. Flourescent pink covered in purple metallic crackle with a blue pearl tinted clear coat.
I just about puked when I saw it!
Anyway we bolted the thing back together with an early Kramer Ferrington elec/acoustic neck and a pink YES PINK, SD JB. and stuck it in the workshop and tried to ignore it.
But,it was the guitar I used to pick up when ever I wanted to just play for a while or was going to jam or rehearse. So I got used to it.....
20 years later,it's still my main axe.
People still puke when they see it,but it probably got more work through the shop than any other form of advertising.
People would come up to me at gigs and say,"Man,that is the UGLIEST FREAKIN' guitar I've ever seen!!!"
We'd talk guitars,next thing you know,they were in the shop having repairs done or buying new stuff
Anyway,I hope no one has just eaten,coz here it is.....
Cheers,PJ

Ha ha it looks pretty sweet, I've always loved those singlecut guitars, but I simply don't feel confortable playing them. What pickup is in the bridge? Have you kept the neck pickup?

Welcome to the SDUGF, frankyboy! That PRS is a really nice one.
kramer.geetar, your B-Series Kramer Pacer Special looks simply awesome! It reminds me a tad of Gilmour (your avatar has nothing to do with that, BTW). Kinda like a Satriani-meets-Gilmour with that black body and maple neck. Single coils would make it perfect.
And uOpt's Burny looks fantastic, got to love that LP with double cream/white pickups, cream rings, and a cherry burst with a plain maple top, simply classic.

Re: Take some NEW pics of your favorite guitar...
You got it dead on man, I love Pink Floyd and David Gilmour, he was the one that first got me into guitars and playing. Amazing person and guitar player and I bought that black Pacer cause I always wanted a Gilmour-looking axe, I love his black Strat and I love Kramer guitars so that black one has a lot of meaning to me.
I didn't build it no, but I picked out all the parts and had someone paint it for me.
