Hello from a new member

[warind8191]

Hey All, just saying hello as a new member.  I've been lurking for a while, and decided to join.  I've noticed that there doesn't seem to be much activity, but that's cool...  I love my Splawns, and just wanted to be a part of the group. 

Thanks again for the add!

Thank you for the welcome.  Seems pretty laid back here, and the content is why I decided to join.  Not sure how much I'll be able to contribute, as forums really aren't my thing these days.. but I appreciate being here.

Thanks for the welcome!

And here are some pics.. lol





The Splawns are a fully loaded 2020 Quick Rod sitting on a 2006 (I believe) straight cab loaded with Eminence MOW and Governor's and a 2014 Nitro sitting on a newer 2016 (I believe) angled cab loaded with V30's and Creambacks.  I'd have to actually look at the cab serials to confirm the dates, but I think that's pretty close.  The Nitro will be getting sent back to Scott to get the fully loaded mods done to it.. If I can get off my lazy butt to pack it up and send it. 

My only wish, is that my playing ability was commensurate with the gear I have.. LOL  I've always pretty much been a "bedroom" player with some brief forays into the "garage band" arena.

Thanks for the kind comments.  Much appreciated.

Splawndude..  That's actually a Carvin CT as well, like the others.  I've owned a few PRS's, and they are phenomenal guitars but the Carvin CT's are very comparable and cost less.  I was looking for something similar in specs to a Les Paul Custom (mahogany/maple with ebony fretboard, etc.), but without the weight and that led me to the PRS's.  Then I wanted a PRS with a Floyd (lots of $$$$), and that led me to the Carvin's. lol

Thanks!  Warmoth's make up about 50% of the guitars I own at the moment.  I love to tinker, and putting them together allows me to build what I want to my specs. I would say that I probably work on guitars a lot more than I play them.  I'm actually starting to branch out into building my own bodies recently and have a couple of projects in the works.  

And Randy.. What can I say.  I credit that man with the reason I play guitar.  

[briman]

Same here! I have 3 project warmoths and i tinker as much as i play lol. Randy is also one the reasons i picked up guitar!

[briman]

Here's my warmoths and a project frankenstrat i just finished last week.

I LOVE the Carvins.
