Howdy, y'all! I'ts been a while since I've posted. I hope I find you all well. During the sale, I got a Maple and Rosewood Baritone neck with the Hetfield headstock. I also worked with another company to get a body made to a different Explorer shape. Well....Here she is!
The Specs:
Maple neck - See Thru Black back with Gloss Black pegface.
Lawrence/Hetfield Headstock shape.
Rosewood fretboard - 24 frets.
Mother of Pearl Dot Inlays.
Stainless Steel Frets, size 6115.
Baritone scale - 28 5/8".
Sperzel Tuners
Mahogany Body
EMG 81 Neck Pup
EMG 85 Bridge Pup
Gotoh T-O-M Bridge
String Thru body
Vol/Tone.
All Black Hardware
It's finished in Black Appliance Epoxy, like a Washer or Dryer! HAHAHA it's moisture proof, impact resistant, and super tough. It doesn't dampen the tone, the EMG "chang' is still there, even in clean settings. I needed to adjust my tone settings, relative to my other guits, but this thing is TIGHT. It's just amazing for the heavy style I play.
I tune it to B Standard with "Not Even Slinky" from Ernie Ball.
It's got such a great feel to it. The neck REALLY blows me away. Really Comfortable and easy to play.
Thanks to Warmoth for the great neck! I'll be enjoying this guitar for many many years!
-EDIT- I added a pic of the back of the headstock.Yeah, so the middle tuner on the top is a wee bit shy of true, but it doesn't bother me :icon_tongue:
I put a decal of my last name Initial in the center and little 'diamonds' in the open spaces on the back of the thumbwheel.
Also, you get a general idea of the paint. It came out really....wierd! the grain lines are a bit red/brown and the overall vibe is very smokey. I like it.
