I just bit the bullet on another kit.. sick of waiting on a local seller on Facebook to reply about his cheap axe.
I was going through the custom specials and found an ST-1 with dual humbuckers that someone had returned. The wood doesn't look particularly interesting.. infact it just looks like two clumps of different coloured timber jammed together - which is ideal in this case, given what I plan on doing with it
I think I need to start another build diary!
