      Nice, tasteful mod to a great guitar. And I love how the sticker gives it the "I don't give a fark" look.

      Ah, the days of the Holdsworth model......

          the bigger the better
          They are huge, they almost look like bass guitar frets to me, possibly even wider than 6100's...

            They cast a mighty big shadow on the fretboard.

              Looks killer now!
              btw I've had the same kind of experience on some old strats with the tremolo bridge, prefered the feeling when just very slightly raised

                  NICE...still miss that guitar. I'm building a replica with a Basswood Mojo body and a Musikraft neck. Not fond of the sticker either.

                    Hi all, first post to this forum, Great San dimas Charvel surfreak, Love the original, like the mod (beacause it is reversible), hate the sticker (its like putting mike tysons face tatoo on meagan fox). This Guitar is the dream guitar I have been looking for all these years since selling my 84 san dimas many years ago. This one is actually alot cooler though beacause of the vintage trem, (mine had a floyd). It looks just like one jake e lee used on the batm tour. If you are willing to part with it PM me a price, I know its not likely but I got to try!

                      All I see is that fuggin' fugly, bullshit sticker!! Take it off NOW..so I can see that nice guitar.

                      Not diggin' that zebra neck pup either. You got half a pup that's white on an entire blacked out ...thing.

                      Love,

                      Billz

                        Im in the minority and like the sticker. Old school skateboard and reminds me of venice beach thrash/punk rock (Suicidal, etc).

                          Well, I remember Holdsworth holding a Crimson colored Model in the old Add..with matching bow tie. It looked very classy. I love classy looking shit..because it's timeless, and not dated IMO. Clean and Classy. I prefer it the way it was. But I can see adding a neck pup if one useses it.

                          JakeE, nailed it for me in his first post here. Great analogy!! Anal-Log-Y.

                          No tramp stamp for the Bubz. That's like putting a bumber sticker on my Cobra. Even tho it doesn't have bumpers. It has jack stands..??:think:


                          These are my opinions, which are facts of course. So, ..these are facts!

                              I realize your mod is reversable, but your original post states this is basically your best playing/sounding guitar with a magic SD '59 in the bridge position........why the need to mess with that?
