let me know what you think so far

I liked the way the Bullet looked stock, but I wanted to change it a bit to reflect me and not be yet another stock guitar in the world..

new changes

it's still got the Dimarzio in it, I trimmed the bobbins so that the bullet plastic cover would fit over it, I sprayed it then took some sand paper to it to make it look as tho it's been played some

so how does it look so far??

Re: let me know what you think so far

much better! only other thing I'd do is give it some black knobs and I'd say you're good to go.

I like it, though I think it would have looked nice with a cream guard as well.

Re: let me know what you think so far

I like the Black guard. As said, I'd put on Black knobs as well.

The pickup is up to you. If you like it, go for it.
