oh man that's gorgeous!!

 

[slashgnr88]

Thank you very much!!! I felt that the flame top on this one was a little more subtle than most of the crazy flamed maple and it makes for a very classy but stunning look.

 

[thebutcher85]

I don't know if it's subtle, but it is EXTREMELY classy! that flame maple is stunning!

 

[Updown]

Mm'um very tasty!  :hello2:
And, real close to something I was thinking of doing. Did you layout the pots and switch yourself, or are those the standard locations from Warmoth?

 

[DangerousR6]

That is in insanely awesome, blue just looks so sweet against clear mahogany...And that fretboard is equally as awesome, love the stuff. I have 3 necks with ziricote... :icon_thumright:

 

[kboman]

Oooo... that is one fine piece of mahagany they got you! The whole guitar is a lovely composition, I'd love to have something like it.

 

[slashgnr88]

thanks a ton to everyone!!! nice to hear she is well liked haha

@updown: ya gold isnt for everyone but for some reason I always find myself leaning towards it with any kind of fancy top. this is my 3rd warmoth to have gold hardware. haha

@Ddbltrbl: Those are the standard control layouts from Warmoth.

This was basically my fix for wanting a les paul and a PRS santana all rolled into one. so I decided for the standard control routs that warmoth offers for the LPS to keep it close to to standard les paul feel while the headstock I chose gives it an overall look pretty close to the santana.

 

[Kublai]

Looks great!

 

[pabloman]

Well well well............... :headbang1:

 

[hannaugh]

I'm not normally one for gold hardware, but it looks really good on the blue.  Nice build!

 

[Stew]

STUNNING!

Making me re-think my single cut Les Paul gassing.

 

[taez555]

My, my, my.

Awesome build.  Looks great!!

 

[JaySwear]

VERY nice! Is that the blue dye finish? It really looks great!

 

[slashgnr88]

It is not the standard Blue Dye finish if I remember correctly. It was a "special blue dye" finish. it has a lot of black in it. I will say that the pics are very very close to the actual color of the guitar in person.

 

[noname]

Now, that is stunning  . Enjoy it and treat her like a lady :headbang1:.

 

[JonatanOTG]

Looking absolutely gorgeous! I like the top veeery much...  :toothy10:

 

[keeper006]

Awesome, I like that you went LPS. And that neck is fantastic, ziricote is my favorite fretboard choice.  ccasion14:
