NGD - LP Standard

MikeM

So I have been gassing for an HB guitar for a while now.. Seems I might just be more of a HB than a single coil guy ?

Got it for a steal - MAJOR grime, no case, but lots of soul in my little Epi <3.

I am working on it currently, cleaned EVERYTHING except the stickers on the back so far.. Now the debate is fret levelling (Have to wait to lend a tool and some knowledge from Gearhead) or stringing it up and jamming some more!!!

Vids will come later, but man this thing sounds lovely ?

Congrats Mike! Nothing a bit of fine steel wool, some alcohol for sticker residue and fretboard conditioner can't solve. Does this one still have the original pickups?

Mike you must really be rolling in cash to be cleaning your guitar with R100 notes ?

inflames

Nice Mike, now send some of those R100 notes my way!

Enjoy, can't wait to see the end product!

MikeM

Thanks man ? Yea was a slightly longer procedure than that ? But it looks GREAT now... Just to decide on the fret work now..

Yea but it's an Epi so they're cruddy. In a month or 2 they'll be SD Antiquities ?

LOL! No that's the money I will be using for a new set of strings..

Happy new guitar day! :goodtimes:

I stringed her up. Can scream pinches even on the neck. My TS9 doesn't give enough overdrive on this amp!!! >☹ It sounds sooo cool. Still have to do intonation, truss rod and action..

I like the quilted look to the finish as opposed to the plain top. What tuners are on there?

Nice Mike

Do I think they're either stock or guitarfetish like cheapies.. Very green..

Btw, this is flamed, quilted is the other one ?

Congrats, Mike, ................. nothing more exciting than a NGD, heh??

MikeM

Oh yes man ?

Truss rod almost perfect now, action pretty close, intonation as well but my tuner seems bust

MIKA-the-better-one

Did that R100 come standard with the guitar????

MikeM
