Yup the very same. When you had your LP in the Fret for sale, Chris handed it to me and told me to check it out. I was gob-smacked. I got the dough together over the next week or so only to have Chris tell me he sold it.......to himself !!!! He keeps saying that he will lend it to me for a...
Scott.....I had to reply to this thread so I can subscribe and see how it turns out.
I've played one of your LP's and was blown away (that darn Chris Bennett bought it right out from underneath me.....HA !!!) and have wanted one of your builds ever since.
This looks like it is going to turn...

So.....Last (reluctant) bump for this great guitar.
I was only selling this to pay for something else....... and I am now well within reach of that "something...
He All....thought I would share the joy here.
Got this baby back in June from a Forum member here and I've waited till now to post pix and my thoughts on her.

That is a seriously cool guitar. I played that one when it was brand spankin' new at Long & McQuade.
