That thing looks awesome! Gorgeous quilt. The tuners really cool with gears exposed. I really like the grain on the back of the headstock too.:yesway:

They definitely look way better than regular closed tuners .


Man that looks dangerously sharp with the "pointies" , don't go stabbing yourself.
Ahaha are you talking about the horn or the grain pattern on the neck?

Congrats! Mine is done and should be here next week. I'm pumped.

Curious, is that an ebony neck? Did you ask for the pronounced grain? It's nice looking.

That is totally sweet. When I first ordered mine it was going to be that color, but I changed my mind and went with blue.

Congrats!

Oh man now begins the period of pain for me. I ordered my BRJ back in March and I know that there will be a steady flow of BRJ NGD's for a while before I get to contribute to the insanity. It's going to make me nuts. That sweet finish is pretty awesome and the fingerboard... my heavens.

That is macassar ebony, yeah? Trust me if it is... it feels gooooood, man. I should know. My warmoth neck and fretboard are made of raw unfinished macassar ebony... Yum... :hbang:

I'm almost positive that it is. The chocolate striping gives it away. As it ages you'll notice the contrast becomes more drastic. I love it to pieces.
