Woops, I missed that bit :oops: Thanks for explaining once more, though :D

Well Paul, I have just read this COMPLETE thread, and I like all of your work completely. I am really dazzled by your blues and aqua colours. I like the way you throw a little purle in there too. The sparkles are also fantastic. Your cool colours are just so mellow yet awsome!

Ivan,

Maybe you have also described Paul: Mellow yet awesome.

I was about to thank you guys, when CJ dropped into the party and hijjacked the shi added his illustrious presence.:lol:


Tim has signed on for one more quick go-round on the 380/12. I'm going to add some details that we agreed needed adding, and then I'll post some more pics.

Then it gets shipped off to Tim, to enjoy life, mid-Pacific style.

Hey CJ,

Back in about page 47 of this thread, you asked where the girl is. And I said she was coming up. Well, this is the guitar I was talking about. So now you've got the girl.

Best,

But thanks anyway. Enjoy that gorgeous guitar when you get it!

No girls here, just some stuff in black and white. Recently-completed basses, and one in process.

A genuine Blackstar, recently completed, one in progress, a Tuxedo, and my own fretless Shadow clone, built from a '76 MG/BT with a new fretboard, mostly new trim and hardware including a black horseshoe.

Lots more nearing completion. I've added some details to Tim's 380L, which will ship next week, I've got another BBR 4001, a 3001, a 430, a couple of acoustics, and that 381 that's nearing the end of a long road...

NOT in this order, I might add!!!

Love the white fretboard on the tux. Black & White rules.
