    Hey Paul if you post these pics in the July Guitar of the Month thread, they'll be judged at the end of this month. I can move them if you don't have the time.
    Cheers,

    Adam

    Certainly, go ahead Adam. You would know best where they need to go.

    Thanks.

    which planet have you been living on Pablo ?
    Myself, Lozza and a couple others built the IB-6S early 2014. Lozza made his fretless. Think the factory were supposed to send IB5's and the 6 strings turned up
