NGD - Paul's in Charcoal (Updated Pics)

Think I figured out the pictures!



Picked up this beauty today...Paul's Guitar in Charcoal, Brazilian rosewood board, nicely figured back too.

Looks like a very nice top.

(special thank you to GC Ron for shooting me some pics of this when it came in...I couldn't wait to get out of work and go check it out, then fell in love with it when I played it. Was totally looking at a couple differnet models but took this one home.)

Pics aren't showing up for me, but I recently saw one in charcoal at my local GC, and thought it was gorgeous!

I didn't have time to give it a play, so I'm going to go back and do that.
 
I like the looks of this one (even the scribble birds :tongue: ) !
Congrats1 How does it sound?
 
Yeah, I can't see the pics either. If it's the one in your avatar, it looks great in that tiny pic!
 
Pictures fixed?!?



It's a beautiful guitar - the back has nice figuring too.

I really like the Charcoal on the flame without the burst edges.

Great tones are easy to conjure out of it too...I was a bit apprehensive about the pickups, but they are great.

Yeah, I didn't think Charcoal was an available color in the Paul's Guitar, but...here it is.

2012 P24 Limited in Vintage Smokeburst
I'm amazed at how good the "acoustic" sounds are from this, but what is really special is blending the piezo and magnetics together...we played "Fly By Night" the other night at band practice with about 70% magnetic and 30% piezo and we were all blown away!

This one was great before, but after the coil-tap mod it is fantastic!

The Paul's is a bad ass guitar if I say so myself. There's a reason why it sold in one day.

The Stripper is another great one too although I haven't heard it with the coil taps yet.
