New Historic Makeover - Faded Tobacco True Historic R9

My first time doing a Historic Makeover and the guitar is finally on its way back to me. This was a tribute piece to my mother who passed away about a year ago and I was super nervous how it would turn out but based on the pictures I couldn't be happier. Original guitar was a 2016 True Historic R9 in dirty lemon. Now I just hope it plays/sounds as good as it looks!

That's killer !

Stunning! You must be so psyched. They did a fantastic job on that one.

Happy New Makeover Day!

Gorgeous!!! Play it in good health!

Most Les Pauls in the Beauty of the Burst book are faded just like that one. SWEET!

Love the color congrats!

Congrats man - you chose the perfect burst, in my opinion. Pattern and colors both. Love it.

When are you expecting it to reach you?

Finally got it yesterday evening! I did a quick unboxing and played it a bit but unfortunately work/life prevented me from a proper introduction. Looks and sounds phenomenal though based on my limited time with it so far. Sustain is absolutely incredible. Hoping to do a proper setup today to my preferences and then we will be off to the races!

Cool. We need more pics when you get a chance!

Much better. The original dirty lemon was nothing historic accurate

Agreed - kinda weird they called it a "True Historic" and then went with that color. Would have not bought it without this project in mind but since I knew I'd be changing the color I focused more on the flame pattern, weight, etc.

Beautiful! That's an absolute ripper mate

WOW, that’s stunning, congrats!

Nice looks wonderful.

Fu King insane.
