N5D - Private Stock 594 Trem in Teal Nightshade Smoked Burst!!

[MA Pete]

N5D (New 594 Day)!

A Brian G creation - thanks Brian, WELL DONE!!

A real beauty!

It had Clear/Black Knobs as shown above, but I quickly changed them to Amber, I prefer Amber Knobs with the Private Stock "Antique Natural" Backs.

Killer guitar! Black Limba Body, Korina Neck, spectacular one-piece Quilt top, Ebony Board and Headstock Veneer, Gold MOP Old Birds with MOP Outlines. This thing is like something I would spec!

Tone report to follow, over on the 594 thread. Early impression here is that it plays and sounds terrific! It feels great, like a 594! Just something magical to me with this scale length...

My only complaint is that when I look at it I remember that Tosca beat me to the punch by like 5 minutes for the Dragon's Breath Glow one - that would have been a heck of a DOUBLE N5D!!

Most excellent as usual! I feel like I can go swimming in that top.

Killer guitar Pete! Dibs on the old knobs

 

[vox801]

Beautiful... enjoy it!

Black pick up rings and put the clear lampshades back on and this is a contender for the best 594 you have purchased so far.

Whoa - that's a stunner! Congrats!

No holds barred, winner takes all grudge match, next Experience! Two men walk in, one man walks out with his hands full of PS 594s!!!!

Wow that's a beauty! Love the wood choices.

 

[CVS]

Congrats & just beautiful guitar! - What's next?

 

[Fro]

WOW!

 

[Tosca]

Stellar guitar congrats!!!
(Sorry about scooping the DBG 594, if it's any consolation you've beaten me to a few in the past)

 

[veinbuster]

Incredible top.
Black limba makes a nice body too.

 

[HighGain510]

I'd imagine that wood combo with those pickups sounds lovely! Second the knob change being a good call, the amber knobs go way better with that finish, IMHO!

 

[goat-n-gitter]

I am truly jealous!

 

[bodia]

Outstanding! Congrats Pete!

 

[QuiltTop319]

That is outstanding!

This thing is beautiful. The color reminds me of that glacier blue PS color. I love everything about this beauty. Would love to hear the difference between 594 PS with and without Trem.

I went back and forth a number of times on the knob pictures and I am torn. The clear ones blend in and become one with the top and have a "new and shiny" thing going. The amber ones "complement" the top with a more "vintage" thing going....

Here's the fun part - I will play it tomorrow!!! bahahahahahahaha

Beautiful, Pete! Enjoy it in the best of health!

 

[toothace]

That ones totally killer!!
