Thanks again, boss! You and Will are just blowing my mind with unexpected stuff that you and he are doing on the Tele. I have a feeling that the rest of my guitars are about to be severely neglected...

decoy205 · 04-28-2009, 07:59 PM

More Pics please!
Great work Roman!

Addendum · 05-04-2009, 10:57 PM

If you had the money, and you had Roman on the phone asking you, "So what can I build for you"? What would you tell him?

I was thinking about a little number:

Guitar:
A Les Paul double cut
Quilted Maple

24 Fret with no Inlays
Brazilian Board (without inlays will look so gorgeous)

So... What would your Rist be?

VastHorizon · 05-04-2009, 11:02 PM

Guitar:

Les Paul Standard
AAAAAAA Flame
Old-Growth Wood
Brazilian Board
All one piece wood
Bird Inlays
22 Frets
Jumbo frets
A set of 6707 VTPH WB's
50's wiring
Cherry Sunburst
"The Paul by Rist" on the headstock since my name is Paul
Grover locking 3x3 tuners
baseball bat neck
gold reflectors

EDIT:
Real Nickel hardware
ABR-1 bridge w/ Mapleflame mod
Screwless pickguard
Historic rings
Historic makeover bird inlays (I hope they make these)
Loooong neck tenon (Is it possible to reach the middle of the bridge and neck pup route?)
Pure nitro finish

djwilbanks · 05-04-2009, 11:03 PM

My Rist is/ (will be when completed):

Telecaster style with a WB P90 in the neck and a WB T-Bridge in the bridge (duh) wound to my twang loving specs.

Mahogany body, maple neck, rosewood fretboard and dot inlays.

Everything else is up to Roman, finish-wise and hardware-wise... just so long as the hardware is nickel/chrome.

Oh, and it has a 50s Gibson style neck carve with a Gibson width, Fender scaled. And Jonesy's got me some tonemojo ready to drop in.

***b-squared*** · 05-04-2009, 11:04 PM

I'd want a LP style, I think, pretty much along the line of Vast Horizon's.

BCRGreg · 05-05-2009, 12:13 AM

It's not in the fridge. Did you eat it?

StrangerNY · 05-05-2009, 12:15 AM

He eated it.

Jason · 05-05-2009, 12:16 AM

Relax, Greg... we're waiting for better weather so we can spread the mayo on it.

***b-squared*** · 05-05-2009, 12:16 AM

I sent the bologna out like 10 minutes ago, and even sent American cheese!

diceman · 05-05-2009, 12:17 AM

He ated half of it, and then sent the other half to Will via Fed Ex about 3 weeks ago.

It should arrive any time - tracking number says that it is in China.

Jared Evans · 05-05-2009, 12:19 AM

This sounds like a job for small claims court and a website to tell the world that Roman Rist eats other peoples sandwiches.

I really think it's the right thing to do.

***b-squared*** · 05-05-2009, 12:20 AM

After seeing it post-shipment, I lost my appetite...

djwilbanks · 05-05-2009, 12:20 AM

Roman has been eating my sandwich for months now. I want a thread documenting the progress of him eating my sandwich. It may slow his ability to eat and work properly, but its the only way I can be sure.

diceman · 05-05-2009, 12:21 AM

ROMAN!!! Greg has been calling you about that sandwich! I demand that you present yourself in front of this internet forum and explain your eating habits!

***b-squared*** · 05-05-2009, 12:21 AM

Aha! Anti-Roman lunch bags!

Jason · 05-05-2009, 12:21 AM

Sad that this is the most interesting active thread right now...

Get Will in here too, I want to know why it's taking so long for the sandwiches they have been working on together are taking so long. Does it take that freakin' long to wind mustard over my sandwich?!

Jason · 05-05-2009, 12:24 AM

Where the fuck is the raffle sandwich!??! I bought like 200 tickets!

diceman · 05-05-2009, 12:24 AM

I wanna know why every sandwich I get from Will is just soggy from being soaked in Taco sauce...

I agree Greg, you should take this to a forum where Roman is truly and deeply hated. They will surely back you.

Dave Johnson has it. He's licking it - probably at this very moment.
