Cross-posted b/c I'm really happy with how this guitar turned out and want to show it off.

New Warmoth build: Flame Koa (select choice) top over Alder, Roasted 5A Flame Maple neck, Jescar FW57110SS, BKP Holy Diver set, Floyd Original, Schaller.
I had an amazing luthier do the fret level, I did the setup, intonation, shielding and I did all of the adjustments, overall it came out great, time to make music...

NGD. Told myself I'd stop buying cheap guitars on a whim but I got a good deal on this one so ehhh. Gotta do a little bit of fretwork but I actually love this. The neck has a bit of flame which I was very surprised to see. Trem so far is better than I expected but the fine tuners def sucko. I'm gonna put a Razor Blood Moon in the bridge position for starters and drop a Gotoh '96 w/ 33mm block in it which I think should fit if I reuse the stock posts that came on this, but more learning needed. RG470MB AFM I believe. Given the autumn fade, I may do some minor accentuating of the theme with some leaf outline stickers at some point.

Out there, somewhere
Just finished putting this one together. It was a fun build and the first time I've done all the finish work myself. Alder body, maple neck, ebony board, OFR 1984, brass knob, brass strap buttons, brass jack plate, Arcane PowerDozer pickup. Finish is an amber tint Tru-Oil with gunstock wax over for both the neck and body.

Took me a while to find one without a dumb as f...price (this is insane like 2K ???? come on, it was 900/1K still 5/6 yrs ago). Had a marble Hamer Centaura 7yrs ago that I sold for another guitar, ...which at the end wasn't worth it. Wanted to find another one, well , it was on a FB ad for one year, pretty close from my home in paris, so no hesitation !
Condition is quite good, no cracks in the finish, fret are good, set up perfectly, no mods. HAPPY !

I don't know much about this warlock other than it was left outside for years. The pickups were salvaged before that, and I've got them in a saber now. Strange looking neck, but I've seen some stranger things 😭

This Ibanez has been with me a couple years now. I got it on April Fools, the joke being that I play 7-strings 99% of the time but wanted to experiment with some 6 string pickups

I had a vintage emg 58 Neck (written on the bottom) in it before with a single coil, going straight to the jack. Switched to the Fred's and added back the vlx91 for some soldering practice. I somehow wired the pickup positions backwards and can't be bothered to fix it.

that's it for my sixers, if I was going to pick up another one it would have to be an Iceman like this one I sold:1000002439.png
