I have a distinct feeling that I've seen that guitar before - although not in that guise. :wink:

It does, Joey, and Paul should stop teasing us and get us a good colour shot of it! :D

Exactly my opinion when they start about lefties :twisted:

Paul, stop teasing us... or get us another teaser... something... anything... no, wait, under anything you might post something unrelated again :mrgreen:

I've often thought ya don't need a PG on a Rick, just an extra slash/cats eye/f-hole/whatever.

I am still waiting for a colour picture of the full guitar - I'm curious how Paul solved the knob issue!

Knobs? What knobs? Are guitars supposed to have knobs? :mrgreen:

It's on its way to its owner...I'll post some good photos after January 10th.

At first I wanted to link to the definition of knob, but thought it might be seen as inappropriate due to some definitions! :lol:

Well, if you want to control the PUs, you do need some form of controls, don't have to be knobs of course.

Are the knobs on the top of the body where only the player can see them?
