Toothace, That is some sweet figuring on that top! Gorgeous!

You know you did good when you still get a compliment from @sergiodeblanc on a blue guitar! Would have been a Bangin! in any other color.

Yeah, that looks super sweet! Good grab!

Thanks. I can't speak for Sergio, but maybe sometimes he can see past the color.....for just a minute ;)


Here's a couple after shots. All cleaned up and a restring and setup and of course the all important Christmas tree alignment (just picky I guess) and because that doesnt bother anyone right! Oh and shot of the p/u cavity for @brado

Cant get over how clean the back is for a 26yo guitar...

And the best part is inside the neck pickup is likely the intials of the tech who worked on the neck or assembled it and the date 6/7, so assuming June 7, 1994. But ironically the intials DLA are my initials and 67 is my birth year. Meant to be I guess :)

Dragon pickup and the small logo with the bigger heel? Awesome!

Now it just needs to get a refin. :p
 
What a beautiful piece!

Those guitars are magic with the amps that were the hot stuff in the late 80s and early 90s.
 
Thanks Brado. Definitely royal blue as hand written out under treble p/u. No modcat in early years. I'll post up a p/u cavity pic when I get a little time after cleaning it up and new strings.

I stand corrected, and I prefer the look of yours with the "binding". I wish my '93 custom had it.
