You are the master of the painted guitar my friend.

yer the 2nd build is a ripper Gav, you better lock it up, sounds like Lozza will pay a visit and take it with him !
Don't think I'll bother entering an axe in September GOTM, this will win it hands down !

Thanks for the kind words guys.
Today I received the jack plate and got in on there. Finally this build is complete! I never thought it would get there. She sounds awesome - I'll try to get a sound demo up at some stage. Alternatively, have a listen to Lawry's RC-1 sound demo and try to imagine that I'm playing. No, even I can't stretch my imagination that far :P.
Here are some glamour shots of the finished build.
cheers,
Gav.

nice work Gav, look forward to the sound demo. Looks like more than one forumite has volunteered to hide it from Lozza !
Maybe if you can please post a pic how the Riccy looks on the wall with your other builds

Thanks Wokka. Yeah that's my Ricky 340. No, that's someone else on the forum - can't remember who. This one cost me serious dollars! It's the only *serious* guitar in my collection, although I do love my Noel Gallagher signature Epiphone too.
cheers,
Gav.
