(notice the conspicious lack of comment about the SS portrait..)

Doing a SS-like portrait would be a fun way to celebrate it's arrival on that day off.

Steve didn't inform you? He told the rest of us!

Yes she was informed and I've already cleaned my camera lense

I like this a lot.
Pity I have only a '78 4001, so If I would send her to Dale the nameplate looks odd, because the letters "Model 4001, made in usa" are smaller on a '75/'74/'73/etc./

I dont think we need a RIC custom shop....

Here are some pics of the AzueGlo beauty while Dale was buffing the finish out.







When I first saw the last pic the first thing that came to mind was a hole saw!
It won't be long before I get my hands around her neck again!

I think I just flooded my keyboard with drool....

Steve and Dale, that fretboard looks just great! Wow! This is going to be a really killer looker.

That's the first thing I thought when I saw it too!

It is looking sweet!!

Ah, just another optical delusion.

I must be drinking what Steve is drinking!

SWEET

That is incredible. NICE work, Dale. Stunning.

Are those red side markers I see?

Yes Jeff.....
you see red.......white and blue!

Wow, that's beautiful, Steve! Great job again, Dale!

Azureglo never did anything for me until I started seeing some of them with the checker binding and sparkle inlays. Now it's rapidly rising on my favorites list!

Dale, email sent about a project I may have coming up for you!
