Looking good mate.

One thing about the guitar. I bet the flaming on the maple is a good deal heavier than those photo's lead us to believe. Dunno about anyone else but i just cant flame to show up well on photo's.

Looks like a screamer to me. Bet your Chuffed. Did you get it for the low price it started at?
If so you got a hell of a lot of guitar for not much money if its anything like my custom classic. 8)

How do I upload an image of my Strat from my desktop to this forum? I'll show you guys an amazing AA flame pattern that comes out nicely in picture. It's the neck on my 1956 NOS Custom Shop Time Machine. Let me know how to upload the desktop image and i'll show you guys. [/list][/code]

Very attractive. Reminds me of my Kickassocaster a bit, except yours is nicer. Did you buy it new? What kind of amp to you play it through?


Purchased off Ebay I paid $1900 AUD

I play through a ENGL Screamer 50 Specs: 50 Tube watts 3 x ECC83 + 2 x 6L6GC Tubes
4 channels : Clean, Crunch, Soft Lead, Heavy Lead
Reverb 12" speaker Celestion Vintage 80

Which suits this guitar very nicely indeed, the clean tones are amazing, with a bit of reverb I get a very warm sounding spanky (if that’s a word.. ) blues / funk tone just playing through the Engl’s 1st channel (clean) if I then throw a bit of bass and mid, roll back the treble and throw in a bit of drive playing with the middle and neck pickups the tone is amazing.. I plan to do a youtube vid shortly so I will post it up for you guys.

Have you got any pics of your Kickassocaster?
