That's snazzy has hell. I am very happy for you.

 

[Professor Bill]

That's pretty hot.

Nice. I applaud your decision to go sans pickguard, it’s a nice blend of LP and Fender influences.

What’s going on in the pickup department? Mild or wild?

Seymour Duncan Antiquity P-90 powers this one!

Very nice! Can you tell me what gold color you used? Thanks!

From Warmoth! The color is Gold top gold! Very close to the gold that Gibson uses

Thanks! I am thinking of building a Regal with Mahagony body, not sure of lam top, with an Indian Rosewood Neck, and using Throbak Kossof pickups in to try to do a LP like build. I was leaning towards walnut lam top with clear finish, but the gold top does look tempting also.

Go with the gold! The pics don’t do it justice! That one has a mahogany chambered body with a swamp ash top
