@boo Haha! That Ibanez rocks! A good friend of mine had it once and sounded amazing. Gretsch had the fake holes first I believe.

@boo I know! It totally sucks for you guys, big time! What a stupid ‘idea!’ (for the other ‘reasons’ as well) I only occasionally ordered stuff from the UK but now I’m wondering if it’s going to be just another…   Read more»

1. If you keep the orders small they should squeak by, uhh right?!? 🤷🏼‍♂️

but just look @boo, it’ll be 20k before too much longer!

 I guess it’s easy if you have one of those fancy drilling guides from StewMac.  @boo Well stewmac aren’t the only ones who have it, although they have gotten expensive. I bought mine a long time ago. Check ebay or…   Read more»

@boo
Yeah, nice one! Great job dude!
Oh, and the repair was pretty good too.

Cheers @koendb.   And, I love the contrasting, wooden scratch plate. No nasty black plastic here @Boo!  That was some offcut from the body, thicknessed (or thinned) down to around 3mm, jointed and then stained.   What the pic doesn’t…   Read more»
