Hahaha i know i've had some lovely quotes from him as well. Just waiting to sell my sc-607 to fund my next build with him. He has to be one of the best value for money luthiers.

I'd keep the finish gun-metallic grey IMO. Would look similar to the Devin Townsend V that Peavey was supposed to release, which was badass.

On the other hand, I'm here busy farming some cash so I can finally send in a deposit for something out of the ordinary from Marty. I hate it when parents suddenly decide to make you pay up for schooling. Part of it was supposed to be my deposit. :(

I'll probably keep the whole thing secret until it's done just because I can. :lol:

Don't think Marty heard from the paint dude this weekend, going to wait a few more weeks before I inquire again, don't want to bother Marty as he is really busy and takes the time to reply. Damn paint guy!!!

Does anyone know if he uses the same guy also for all finishes? I got a reply from him a couple of days ago that the 1st of April is stil the estimated time of completion :) We should be able to see some NGDs this March I can feel it!

^^Not sure Min. When I talked to Marty in January, he told me he had just gotten back from holiday and was surprised to find that the paint guy had a whole bunch of his(our) guitars unfinished. Its possible he uses the same guy, all I know is he's standing in the way of my guitar! But I'll forgive him once I see the finish I asked for :)

Indeed.
I'd have bought that guitar if it had a floyd (or even a Kahler) and 2 humbuckers instead of the Singlecoil/humbucker set. that one and the Hex7 from nergal were sheer sex for my eyes, with only one small detail ruining the picture. unfortunately i'm not a fan of the V7fr schecters :/

but a siggery custom would be beyond nice :D

It's been way too long in transit,it's not like it comes from outside Europe to justify delays in customs and such.

Do contact Marty about this.Try a different account or just write him again.

As far as I know, you only have to email him once. He ALWAYS replied to me within a week, which I think is acceptable.

Mine is still on schedule (1st of April) according to Marty, so let's hope this paint guy is doing his job about now.
But ey, 3 guitars waiting dispatch is great! Told you guys there will be NGDs :D

I'm also speccing out a possible second build with Marty: A Paul Reed Smith 7-string Semi-hollowbody with hipshot tremolo. Carved flamed maple top, flamed maple back.. You get the picture ;) Now, let's see where my money is at..

Hahha yeah I am trying to nail what I want in a FF7. It's just frustrating because I want a spalt top, but with a very particular figure, so I know it could be a long wait for that, alone
