  • Re-made Soloist

    Hello all,

    I bought this guitar new in about 86, it came with the worst tremolo ever made, Kahler (dont remember the model). Not just any kahler, the really really bad one, so i decided to take it over to Lee at G.M.W. to see what could be done, long story short the trem route, oversized pick up route were filled in, guitar was re-topped with maple, routed to original Floyd Rose, routed a standard pickup route, added the neck pu and re finish, ive had this guitar since it was new and w
    was never really a true player because of the bridge, now with the OFR with a brass block its a screamer!!!

    trying to post some pics but somehow i cant

          How long did it take for the work to get done? I'm thinking of getting a simple custom from GMW, and i'd like to have an idea of the wait time.

                it took a little over a month, as far as build time you would have to talk to Lee, it varies on the build time
