I enjoyed looking at some of your work, nice illustration of the Chapron DS Decapotable.
I see you took pictures of the Auto Italia day, I wonder if that might be my old Alfa Montreal, though there was a three or four Verde Metallizzato Montreals in the UK when I had mine in the early 90's.

Wow - fuck aluminium beard guitars! You had a Montreal?! That verde one has been owned by the same guy for a long while I think. It's been a fixture of those shows for as long as I can remember. Would love a Montreal, or a Zagato Junior...

I should get a Alfa Romeo Montreal ('cause I live in Montreal).
Hey Sumlin, are you a Lungfish fan?

My favourite record of theirs is Love is Love. I particularly love the main riff on Fearfully and Wonderfully.
What is the name of your band?

I'm an Artificial Horizon guy...
I play in a few things, mainly Kogumaza (we did a record recently with Nathan the old bassist from Lungfish on bass for us) and I also play in Grey Hairs as well.

Bumping an old ass thread as it seems to be one of very few, I've an Electrical Guitar Company Tyranny incoming with the big box Travis Bean/Widerange pickups in the next few months and was just wondering are there any other EGC owners on here / how do the general OSG Populace feel about Aluminium instruments? I already own a Jazzmaster with a bolt-on EGC neck
http://www.offsetguitars.com/forums/vie ... eck+offset but I'm looking forward to owning a fully aluminium instrument.

Aluminati is doing aluminum neck/carbon fiber fretboard necks to order, if I had $850 for an experiment I'd give it a shot.

I remember this one actually, wasn't it in the For Sale section a while back? How do you/ did you find the pickups?

Yeah, I may have put it up for sale at one point when I needed some $$$.
It’s great. I think the Senns are fantastic. Clear, bright, articulate. I want to do a jazz master parts build with them.

That'd be rad, have you ever played a full on EGC?

I haven’t. This has become a favorite of mine. @kosta on here may be able to weigh in
