I am really excited to see some more. I was told that the guitar would be done the second or third week of this month. Scott told me a week or so back that everything was on track and should be done on time.

Hey Craig! What do you think of the new headstock? I think it looks great. Its like a cross between an Ibanez and Jackson.

I like it, not as much as a strat but I like it. I don't like pointy though, if he rounded that top out and side It would be cooler. Never was a fan of the Jackson looks.

Never been a Jackson fan either, but I like this though. I wouldn't have minded a rounded edge, but I will settle for this. Not much they really could do in that short of time. If Fender wouldn't have stepped in. I can't wait to see the finished product! |

No wander Eddie used it on his Kramer! I am starting to really like my headstock alot. Its still different from everything else out there. Very unique!  |

The purple tiger is going to be so killer looking! Your yellow tiger looks awesome too Craig. I almost got the yellow, but I liked the purple better. Its like $200 more than the yellow tiger just because of the air bursh work that has to be done. No biggie. The way I see it is this will probably be the only guitar I can get for a while, so why not go all out ya know?

LOL Well, as long as the wife likes it you are in the clear! I am so tired of my Wolfgang. I keep breaking strings. d**n metal burs. My Mansel is going to have those Graphic Tech Saddle Savers. Graphite Saddle pieces. Craig, you should think about it for your Mansel. My friend has a Fender Strat with the Saddle Savers. They acctually improve the tone. More sustain and just all around clear sounding! Scott sells them cause he is a dealer. Cost me $60 through him. www.graphtech.com/prodssaver.htm |
