Dale Fortune provided a link to this picture of his restoration of Dave Pascoe's Fireglo 4080/12. Oh, man, is that beautious!

Could this be the most incredible Rick yet? How is the possible, full width inlays, CB? 4080 did not come out until after these features were done. I don't think there are any bolt-on FWMOP necks to make a custom either. Paul/Dave, give it up, what's the secret?

The gold guards on a fireglo body go well together.

Wes, the work is all custom, Dale made the guitar necks & did all the rebuilding/refinishing/customizing.
Check out the thread in the Vibrola section, particularly how painfully modified the guitar half was to start.
You'll be even MORE impressed.

It's been a long, involved project that certainly has fulfilled all expectations.
Truly stunning!
