I say Jag knobs and a black switch tip = perfection
It's not about the gear! It's about you, your hands, your imagination, your feelings.

Good luck with the project. Oops. Edit:

GO for the Barrel Knobs and no stripes!

now that i had it around for a few days, i tend to no stripes and barrel knobs.
still looking for a strap that would look okay with it. everything i tried is just too much.

yeah i know it's super useful info that's worth posting on the wholeworldwidewebz.  :P

i still need to sort out some electronic issue with this thing, which will give me another occasion to try the black plastics combo. if i could find some more orange stripe decals (i felt the stark red was a bit too much), i'd try them. hmmmmmm.... choices, choices.

i like the stripe
that is the point of a custom work
make it different and cool all at the same time
I'm glad there are a lot of guitar players pursuing technique as diligently as they possibly can, it leaves this whole other area open to people like me.

Yeah, I'd love to see it with a more "authentic" Comp orange stripe.

I love that this thread is named "Shell Pink" and when you click it you get an orange guitar!
