Re: My Guitars

The top on your Slash really jumps out at you.. I bet your son thinks the guitar you made for him is really cool, something to Cherish for a long time...

Re: My Guitars

Cheers 05hummer! Still getting used to having a Gibson, as no matter how careful I am playing it seems to be a magnet to marks and scratches! As for the boys guitar, hes only 6 months, but im pretty sure he will play it on his first Platinum album (LOL). It was just a little something to celebrate his birth(immortalize) and will age as he will. It is by no means of the Standard that some of these guys do on the forum, but it was made with love by someone who failed Woodwork along time ago!

Yeah, that's a great top on the Slash. You, and jomo, have the nicest tops I've seen on the Slash models. Maybe he'll chime in with his.

Ok, if you insist! You know me, always willing to share some pictures.
I saw Drayke on Gibson's website (Slash Owner's Unite) long before I even knew about this forum. Now we are both on there. Wolfchild is also there.
