NGD THE BENGAL BURST SOLOIST HAS LANDED!!!!(Pic Heavy)

[sixstringsamurai]

My morning Started off grand! I went out to have my smoke, and coffee, and just as I was finishing up and nice man in a big brown truck gave me these. :blob7:

I opened them up to find these beautiful pieces.

Continuing on....

Test fit found the neck pocket nice and tight, couldn't wait to see it in the case....

Taped up and ready to clean frets, I was BLOWN AWAY but the quality fret work, all it needed was the finish removed and a polish

Tuners!
These babies slid in slicker than a smelt!

TRC.

Pots.

Strung up, under tension with initial truss adjustment.

Last detail was the Strap Locks, I did the upper one SG style, I prefer they way it make a guitar hang.

AND NOW FOR THE PORN SHOTS!!!

 

[sixstringsamurai]

I was incredibly surprised how little set up this guitar needed, and it went together so easily.
3.5 hours from box to case.

BIG UPS, to Warmouth, for providing outstanding quality parts, and my WIFE, for getting me such an awesome 40th birthday present.

Yay!!!

That pup looks a little low..

 

[Cagey]

Very nice! And good for you! If it plays/sounds half as good as it looks, you've got a real winner there.

I literally only had to adjust only 3 saddles out a 1/4 turn for intonation, I was shocked how close it was out of the box!

Yay!!!

That pup looks a little low..

It does, but it's totally in the sweet spot, the action on this thing is razor thin.

Definitely a nice guitar...

I prefer mine topless, but if you gotta cover up, that's one way to do it...

And that burst is amazing. Fo' Sho'. Yummy.
