Old Spalty

[bbl4ck]

Nice! Is that a "Spalt King" Body? Floyd Rose as well??? COOL!

Nope, not from spalt king, I bought the top in raw form from a place in Canada called Frasier Valley Fine Woods. Then sent it to a guitar maker who specializes in tele's, to make the body for me.. :icon_biggrin:

He did a damn fine job on that body. What neck/pickups you gonna run on her?

The neck is a wenge/ziricote combo rev Jackson style headstock with matching spalted veneer..The pups I have are an Air Norton and an Air Zone, I also have a spare D-Activator I might use instead of the Norton... :dontknow:

Damn, that is soooooooooooo F&$@ing sweet. 
Flaming Spalted top with the Jackson neck and matching spalted headstock. 
Gotta love it...

I used to be one of them, but this guitar has shown me the error of my ways. There's just so much awesome going on there.

Spalt has always been one of my favorite tops. Mostly cause they are so unique, and unless cut from the same slab, never the same.. I searched for a good while before I saw the right one.... :headbang1:

Well, I think you might have gotten the best one I've seen :icon_thumright:

Man, I wanted to see them at that concert!
I remembered them coming around last year, but I think I didn't have money, or something. That's one of the local-ish music places.

You misspelled Air Norton, it's spelled like this: "EMG".  :icon_jokercolor:

Check out my posted clips in "BLUE" from the Tele section. Hemorrhage has some great tone going on.  :icon_thumright:
