  1. I aim to please. The slight reddish cast is an artifact of the camera. I even tried tweaking the white balance some, but it's still there.

    That looks nice, I may hit my HP V and BFG with some of that stuff.

  2. I didn’t read the charger right for the robo battery, and the battery died mid string change, but they load just like split Klusons so I’m at home with them.

     

    The new and improved tailpiece posts really suck ***, I need to see if regular posts will fit. What a ******* horrible concept.... it looks like the bridge posts are similar....

  3. Another vote for the chrome ones.

     

    The reflector/top hat are one of my least favorite knobs due to the shape of them, but the chrome looks nice on the guitar.

     

     

    I just got my HP V in and it has the chrome “gumdrop” knobs, they look nice but they suck for function.

     

    I thought strat knobs sucked...

     

    Time to get into the stash of Fender amp knobs.

  4. Beautiful V, but I never would have guessed you would have gone for robots... how do they work with a tremolo?

     

     

    I went more for the guitar than the robotuners, but they will get a fair shake and torture.

     

    I’m not planning to put a tremolo on this one, but I could switch these robos onto my 2004 specifically to test the stability, but that seems too much like work...

  5. I was looking at picking up the humbucker version of the BFG Les Paul, and I got distracted, and somehow ended up buying this....

     

    I have been lusting after the LP DC jr, and the Pelham SG Special also, but those will have to wait...

     

    The robos say something about improved gears.... I’ll give them a shot. If they don’t work out I’ll end up putting in a set of 3-3 split shaft tuners.

    They are attached to a 2017 HP Flying V....

    She will be a welcome addition...

  6. Lookds like the new ones w/ humbuckers or P90s are going for $649 at the moment

    New BFG Ebony

     

    Dude! That’s tempting to pick up another, I got mine for $729...

     

    I’d get a HB model and put some ******* covers on the pickups... I am not a Neanderthal.... We don’t have uncovered humbuckers in this household.

  7. The BFG Tremolo would go for $975 in mint condition.

     

    The BFG Gator, $875.

     

    The BFG Limited Edition, LPLP 2007-2008, $2,500.

     

    The BFG Limited Edition 2008, $1,000.

     

    And finally, the original and first BFG, $850.

     

    Weird, I know.

    This is according to Fjestad's Blue Book.

     

    :(

     

    That’s a confusing short history...

     

    I got one of the newer p90 versions, I wish I had the humbucker in the bridge like the older version.

     

    Very nice guitar. And well worth the clearance price.

  8. I can’t get over the body to neck ratio...

     

    Here is a picture of anyone over 5’1” playing one...

    So I'm joking and ridiculing the BluesHawk....

     

    I'm meeting someone tonight about a possible trade for a trans black Epiphone...

     

     

    I'm going to look like Leslie West playing a Ukelele...

     

    Monkey humping a tennis ball...

     

    What other analogies can you think of?
