Purple Tribute Prototype 1

[Cdcro]

In a moment of Amex fueled lunacy I purchased one of the prototype Purple Tribute bodies. The wood was way too pretty so I went with pickup rings for now.

Body: Purple Tribute Prototype with black binding flame maple with walnut stripe
Neck: Walnut neck with flame maple fretboard vintage/modern with clear gloss finish and locking tuners.
Electronics: Rio Grande Muy Grande x 2

All in all I'm happy with the build,  BUT I might add the pickguard and bridge guard at some point.

Looks really good without the pickguard. It holds its own nicely. Thanks for sharing the finished photos.

Very tasty. The body is stunning but I especially like that neck. Beautiful.

Very nice! It not only looks good without the 'guard, I think I may prefer it that way. Nice how the skunk stripe and body stripe tie things together.

Looks good to me without the scratchplate ( pickguard).  :icon_thumright:

That is a beautiful guitar.

Looks way cool that way, who needs a pickguard anyway?!

Nice, I like the figure on front and back, you don't see that too often... :icon_thumright:
