Re: My 08 Studio Pics after color change

Wow,I have the exact same Studio and have recently been considering this tweak myself. Having some Photoshop skills, I mocked up what it would look like with creme vs white. I'm still undecided on which direction to go.

that's funny, I teach graphic arts component at a vocational school for special needs H.S. students. we use Illustrator alot but I do some things in photoshop. Looks clean man, good job. I have no doubt that I'll eventually go back to the wine/black but I'm diggin this creme thing now. Good Luck with your mod

Re: My 08 Studio Pics after color change

Yep, I am expecting the switchwasher in the mail today and the next mod will be the gold machine heads, then gold burstbucker pros. my pups are chrome now, I've been thinking about taking the covers off..... I'm always on the market for a brighter sound so it can't hurt anything. we'll see what happens.

Re: My 08 Studio Pics after color change

Hrmm this combination I bumped into by accident. Chrome pickup rings with white pickguard, switch and knobs. I think this is what I might go for.

thanks bro, this is my start on the road to a collection like yours. I want an 82' custom and a standard, then i think I'll call it quits. what would you say is the better era for standards? I want a heavy ass one that i keep reading about throughout this forum.

If you want a really heavy one, look for a good Norlin. Those new Traditional models probably have some weight to em!
