Hey guys, I'm kinda new here and I'm getting my first 7string custom soon(4-6weeks)!

I'll have it painted white with BK aftermath pickups

I'm so stoked about this I can barely sleep!

just kidding. Congrats.

That's Bernie's new 'mono" inlay so you can't get lost positionally on the fretboard

 

[Speculum Speculorum]

You have no idea how many people have seen pictures of my guitar and have asked what kind of crazy green wood he's using on my neck.

Others have asked if the neck is glass. Sometimes I mess with them and tell them it's wood that has been pulled out from an ice cap.

ages ago since I posted anything here, but now that my guitar is 99.9999999999% finnished I'm going to post a picture Bernie sent me

My 6 string Jekyll is gunna look a lot like that but with a rosewood neck.

Nice man!

 

[Polythoral]

4-6 weeks they said...


ANYWAYS, congrats, looks great. I'm sure it'll be worth the wait when you get it!

 

[Pikka Bird]

It doesn't have Bernie's wonky neck pickup? Nice.

 

[MaxOfMetal]

In Bernie's defense, he didn't say how many 4-6 weeks.

Looks awesome.

 

[Vostre Roy]

*Looks at the OP date, waiting time, current date*

Weeks... months... those are just time reference, wich Bernie still seems to not fully understand

Looks nice though, hopes you'll enjoy it!

I think it is not a long time for a Rico jr, just look at other (BFR) customers.

 

[JP Universe]

EDIT nevermind

So you started this thread in March of this year and your guitar is pretty much done? Holy fuckballs, what kind of sexual favors did you do?!!
