      Nice! Looks cool, and $60 can't go wrong there!

        Ibanez SR300

        The Rhoads has the JH-3 in the bridge & J50N in the neck & sounds pretty good..
        I blocked the trem with a modded old strats trem plate to only pull flat & now it has more sustain & stability & can be drop Dtuned via the low E fine tuner..

        Also picked up a Ibanez SDGR SR300
        Bass has a 5 piece neck, active pickups & is just sweet to play, I just gave my Charvel 2B to my oldest son..


        Now I need a DK2 neck for the Pile of Skulls body & have picked up a P-Rail & two Fender Robert Cray Pickups plus two Push/Pull Pots for that project..

          Wow, you still have a fishbowl TV?

          And you might wanna straighten them drawer handles
          I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood

          The most human thing we can do is comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable.

            Yup!! And that's a Jewelry Box NewC.. I will tighten them handles up for the Mrs.

            I forgot to say that the Rhoads came in a Fine Case & the DK2 Body came with the tremolo.
            I mounted the pickups & pots + switch..
