But then you got home and fired up the Katana and GAS was extinguished?
I've honestly been thinking about selling the katana since I got the AC4 and buying a handwired AC15.…
I used to borrow a hand wired ac-15 with a green back for band practice and no matter what guitar I put through it, it sounded glorious.

Yeah. It didn't get the attention it deserved amongst all the dad blues, bendy Strat guys. Sounded deep as fuck.

So what's the theme for the next one? Post apocalyptic rigs? Battery powered headphone amps and a guitar made from a shovel?

Looking through the images I forgot to add one of the Jazzmaster, thought Grants Tele needed a better pic to show off the colour .Grants guitars will be for sale soon too as far as I know. Image

Great photos as always!

And thanks to everyone for the feedback, it was very much appreciated! And I've ordered a piece of tortoiseshell pick guard blank, so will see how it looks with it siting on it to see what I do next. Seems that was the popular vote :) !

It is. There was a wee one in an old battery charger case that was as cool as fuck too.

If I had any money I'd buy the bloody lot. :-)
