Trussart's are some freakin' nice instruments. I drove down town to this awesome guitar shop (their webpage is eddiesguitars.com if you live near st louis) and that shop blew my mind. They just have a great selection of stuff. No guitar shops around me stock high end fenders and gibsons, so it was pretty sweet. They had a gibson les paul with a dean style headstock, it had 3 humbuckers. So sweet.

I didn't know there was a Sam Ash on the Sunset Strip. I've been to everything else on the Sunset Strip. Never saw that shop. It has been a while since I've been to Cali and the strip, 2004.

It's right across from the Guitar Center. There is about 10 Guitar Stores on that Bloc. Samash, Carvin, Mesa Boogie, GC, many others.

Thanks Halo! hmm... I could either send you an autocad .dwg file, or put it in a .pdf file. So yeah, sure. You'd have to find a big printer though

Actually yeah, I do have an update. video of current progress. Video update. Sorry it's been so long, I have 2 weeks of school left, and i've been busy. twitvid.com/EK4HX I am kind of stuck though. I need to drill the bridge mount holes, and neck holes. and Im kind of stumped on how I am going to do it. |

That's going to look sweet man. How much do you think it'll weigh?

I didn't like all the bondo on there, so I took a sander, and sanded it way down. Minimal Bondo on it now, and it sounds much better. Oh yeah, its also done. Metal guitar, complete. Photo 1 of 2 tweetphoto.com/25126509 |

Bo, it's a pretty heavy guitar. feels like a les paul custom. I'll try and find a scale to weigh it, for a more precise measure.
