I suppose my 408 could be considered one of a kind. It's one of Brian's wood library semi-hollows, 8 were built, but I got the only one in charcoal tri-color burst with a rosewood neck:D *edit* Who broke the linking system?! Photobucket img links aren't posting properly anymore :confused:

I would almost kill for some good Hawaiian food right now, lol

Think of them as life lessons & your own story. I have plenty of tattoos that I absolutely hate now, and I even broke my rule (no names, no brands) and did the PRS birds... if I end up hating PRS, I chalk it up as a time in my life where I felt it was significant enough to honor with a...

It might work... Probably does just fine, I doubt PRS would release something that's floppy, lol My 7 string is a 26.5", and it's pretty tight with 10's on it, so maybe with the Holcomb 8 you can actually bend, lol

A 24 fret, 408 7-string :D

I think that pic just put Daves to shame, lol

Well the last job I held was as an electrician for Lockheed Martin on the C5 AMP (Avionics Modernization Program)... I left there and became lazy. Now I do whatever makes me happy, fixing stuff, breaking stuff, building stuff... You get the idea, lol

I was just talking about this the other day with Vaughan, couldn't remember who started it or the name of the thread, but glad to see it resurrected! That's a nice looking neck :cool:

I thought about changing it, but some serious stuff happened and it sipped my mind. you're right though, there are some models that that don't, but any SE's with figuring are a veneer on a maple cap. Yes, veneers are very thin slices of real wood, they sand and take stain as any other chunk of...

All SE's have a laminated veneer on a maple cap.

You guys suck :p Suppose I should call Brian and see when he's getting more... I suppose if I get one from Sweetwater they'll let me do payments though... Hmmm, decisions.

That's actually what I was thinking about since Mark first teased us with the photos, lol. I kept thinking, if they do use his pickups and locking tuners, it's going to push the price of this thing into S2 range... I was happy to see a sub $1k price though. I'd still love to get my hands on...

I was thinking the same thing too... Locking tuners and a $300 set of pickups (granted, wholesale cost on them is probably more like $100)? Hey, if they managed it, I'm not gonna complain. I'm just sad I gotta wait till the 1st to place my order :(

Sweet water has them for preorder now... Guess I know what I'm buying next month :cool: http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/SEMHHB?adpos=1o1&creative=105593157841&device=m&matchtype=&network=g&gclid=Cj0KEQjw4pO7BRDl9ePazKzr1LYBEiQAHLJdR1tP7yTfNjL2UdnphnXm5qIhLAzAsAlGRLqBMjoTwGwaAjQu8P8HAQ...

:eek: Woah... I have no words... Although lately I've had a serious case of GAS, everything has been beautiful... Probably because I just won a years worth of rent, so I'm wondering what I could possibly do without that chunk of money going out every month, lol
