Chris, you have done really well mate. especially for a first time DT user. I really like the deep colour of the CG. It suits the tele. Really its an artform and never the two will be the same. (Wazkelly did two different Explorers at the same time with two different CG batches and they aren't even the same). I also know that photos sometimes don't do it justice especially when you hold the DT in different light. Digging that pearloid pickguard and Babicz bridge
