You should try a Multibucker if you get the chance. It is very similar to a Megadrive, but it is made up of 2 single coil sized rail humbuckers that you can switch between. They don't list it at their web site, but they have the components listed. The original version is a Chopper and a FastTrack 1. This would be a good choice for a Strat style setup. I custom ordered one that has a ProTrack and a Cruiser and it is killer for my V, because the ProTrack sounds so close to a PAF and when you kick in the Cruiser, you have a Megadrive. The Cruiser by itself makes the V sound somewhere between a Strat and a Tele. Really weird stuff.
That sounds interesting...I'm gonna have to check up more on that. Thanks man.

This is my main work horse. It's a Larrivee D-03E and has taken a beating over the last year or so. Because of the humidity, I ended up getting a decent sized crack in it and had to buy another one until I get this one fixed.
Image
My mid 90's B.C. Rich Warlock.
Image
This is an older B.C. Rich ST-3 that Paul from Big Head Guitars painted for me. Within the last year, the headstock snapped and is sorta out of commission until I can find another neck for it. :(
Image
This is my newest guitar. A Larrivee DV-03E.
Image
This is a B.C. Rich Assassin Outlaw. I've had this one a long time and is currently in the shop waiting to be painted.
Image
Out of all my electrics, this one is the only one I brought with me when I moved to Key West. Paul from Big Head Guitars did an incredible job on it. It's also an ST-3 B.C. Rich.
Image
This is an NJ series B.C. Rich Mockingbird. I got a great deal on eBay and had to have it. ;)
Image
This is a Japanese NJ series B.C. Rich Mockingbird that was damaged when it was shipped to me. After Paul got a hold of it, it turned out to be quite the sled.
Image
This is the newest electric I own. It's a B.C. Rich Beast that plays like a mother!!
Image
This is an N.J. Series Bich in the shop right now getting painted and new hardware on it.
Image
I bought this one from a store back home I'll never deal with again. Anyways, this is a custom USA Gunslinger with a factory block graphic and a scalloped neck.
Image
This is one of the best necks I've ever played on and it was all done from the factory.

I also have an Alverez classical (not sure what the model is) and a Washburn SBS-20 acoustic/electric.

Image
During the last two songs of the last Retro Active show, this is what's left of another Warlock in my collection. I bought it over 10 years ago and it sit around in pieces until I found the time to fix it. Needless to say it was put together frankenstein style for this show. Paul helped me put it together and paint it. We used JB weld to hold the bridge bolts in place and instead of using bridge pins, we used bolts. Once the bridge was in place, we used more screws to make sure the bridge would stay in place. We wired a pickup straight to the jack and then it was painted. He grabbed a bunch of spray cans from the shelf and started going to town on it. I honestly think after the hack job we did that the guitar needed put out of its misery. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :evil: :shock:
The liver is evil....It needs punished.

Just wanted to say that Paul (Big Head Guitars) does killer paint work. I've seen some of his work and you just can't go wrong. Paul I'm still goin' to get that Model 2 painted one of these days-honestly!

Yeah I got the Laney years ago from Jeff it's all tube and it just screams. Kenny when ever you want let me know and I will hook you up. Here is one I just finished a while ago for a guy in California. Check it out.
Image
I like this one and am going to do one for myself, it's pretty close to DeMartini's original. Check out my site if you want to check out some other cool paintjobs and guitars that I have built.

Yeah Paul I finally got around to putting snakeskin on the head and cab, it turned out great but it only took me 2 years to get to it as my shit always sits till last. :cry:
The Carvin 32 fret guitar is cool I painted it for a guy in NYC. But it has to be one of the ugliest guitars I have ever seen. It is sort of tough to play the last 10 frets as they are so narrow but it gives you a lot more options.
To me it sort of resembles the West Virginia University logo when it stands upright.

Man Paul, I was pretty much set on that Lynch "Booger" paint job but that DeMartini "crossed swords" is way killer. That's the one for sure. Ok anybody that's not playin' tonight come out & see us at Lisa's in Hopewell so we can make some extra dough & I can get this paint job! Please!!!
