      She arrived safe and sound! Not without incident though. Fedex makes everything so damn hard. Oh well she's here and I need to plug in and make sure everything is tight. Be back in a bit with some quick pics. She is a stunner!!

                Well I've been playing her for a few hours and again just amazing.

                Here are the specs.

                Alder Body
                3 piece maple neck
                Birdseye maple neck dyed blue
                Mirrored Star inlays
                Mirrored GMP logo
                String thru
                Bare Knuckle miracle man calibrated set

                and of course the stars and stripes graphic, but here is the story on that. My dad passed away last September from cancer, and on my birthday no less. I decided to have this guitar built in his memory. In tribute to him and his Naval time, I had Dan airbrush his patch, which I scanned his actual Navy patch and sent it to Dan, ship, and years served. It came out better than I could have hoped for.I know with every guitar you hope for a lifetime keeper, but this one is a family treasure. My wife is expecting our first child in October and I can't think of anything better than this for him or her to remember their grandfather by!

                Well enough of that, on to some pics.

                    Congrats on your NGD. I'm sorry about the loss of your father, but your V is a nice way to commemorate him and his service.

                    Congrats also on your upcoming first child!

                    Having kids changes your life so much that it makes everything that happened before pretty much irrelevant.

                              Thanks for that. My wife and I are incredibly excited and can hardly wait. It's been just us for far too long.
