Er...it's April 25th, Ron...how 'bout a picture of you holding it, Ron?

Awesome! Who did the work?

Does it have ROS as well?

That is an amazing looking guitar. Congratulations.

Bitchen!

Very nice Ron

So, how about a picture of you holding it, Ron? With today's newspaper, too? Hey?

Are you implying its not real Paul? Cause thats the first thought I had when I saw it

Yeah what exactly is going on?

Beautiful guitar!

Next step, Ebay.

Not the actual guitar, but a hyper-realistic representation, complete in every detail !!!

Huh???

Well then, someone needs to make one of those!!

Argh. I thought it was real. I'm really disappointed. I thought it was a transformation executed by one of the master luthiers from here on the forum. Oh well. At least if someone wants their 330 xformed into a blueburst 370 WB with FWI with a bound headstock they'll know what it's going to look like, as well as have a "actual picture" to show the luthier...

I've been very fortunate on this one.... Ron's kept me in the loop since day one with pics and descriptions and I have shared the pain and nervous tippy-toe times. It's pretty scary stuff having a guitar completely transformed let alone having it done on the other side of the globe. After all, you can't exactly pop around and discuss colours and other details! I went through it when Paul did my Gretsch and I can tell you it's real nail biting stuff!!

I particularly like the burst, bound headstock and first fret inlay..... something very personal and totally outside the square. My heartiest congratulations, Ron. Let's hope our planned get together next weekend eventuates and I can have a first hand gander at this lovely!!
