Some obscure ugly model.
I was thinking of repainting it.

Whaddayathink?
Wouldn't it look better in pink?

florescent pink , canary yellow , bright orange , anything that will highlight the chrome and pick up rings , Black , white , red , and blue are way too overused on guitars these days , mix it up a bit and step out of the box . If you want to get real crazy try "swirling" p.s. nice axe :D

More pics will follow later. :)

Damage to my bank balance? I don't dare to share that with you.
Well, without sharing too much - it was the deal of the year.

However, it took a days worth of driving... To Norway and back. :)
Worth every mile (and every Norwegian Krona).

Sure, she has her issues as well. Broken mini-switches, broken jack-plate (plastic btw...) and so on.
Nothing that can't be fixed.

History repeats itself: vikings setting out to foreign shores, robbing everything they can get!

Robbing...?
Nahh, I paid the man. (Though I'll admit I did not haggle over the price.) 8-)

A few bad photos are available here.
Hopefully the weather will get a bit better so I can take her outside for a photo-session.
