    Yup, will take photos tomorrow, and the whole thing is carmine gypsy, neck as well as body.
    I like V's and other Gibson styles to have the same neck colour as on the body.

    Yup man, the vintage yellow and another order of carmine gypsy are either for a strat refin or another kit. preferably another kit of the telecaster variety. Luckily my 18th is coming up so there may be a tl1 in my future.

    bad timing Tristan but 7 weeks uni break - most workers can only dream of a break like that long.
    wait till you get a full time job thats about 2 years annual leave !

    what course are you studying ?

    Secondary Education - Music Teacher, it's a good course though a lot of the theory is dry and the music subjects have bee simple so far.

    ok good choice should be a fun career and teachers get about 51 weeks annual leave a year ! haha just kidding, but heaps more than 4 weeks annual leave.
    Got to start with the basics I spose. Would you be lucky enough to teach guitar as a teacher ?

    I don't think I'd be qualified to teach guitar for some time I'm afraid!
    I'm a late convert to the guitar, I've been playing trumpet for ten years and only recently (Year and a half ago) switched to the greatest of instruments.
