  • Napalm Bengal SN 8416 Arrives

    I think most of you know about the guitar so I won't go into the details. The custom shop absolutely nailed this one. I always wondered if my design would translate well and it must have. The neck is one of the best I have felt. The fretboard an frets are perfect. Very little relief in the neck at all and it's straight.

    Tone wise it just flat out rocks. I took a chance with the pickups and controls as I had not ever heard them before but the EMG 89's are just as good as the 85. The EXG control takes some time getting used to but overall the tones out of this thing are amazing, clean and distorted.

    Hat's off to the custom shop guys. There is not one thing wrong with this guitar. On to the pics...



    The grain on the back almost makes it look like fur.


    The fretboard has some what of an aged look to it and fits in perfectly with the guitar.





    The pics do not do it justice. Maybe if the sun comes out one day I'll take some more pics.

                      That is nice.
                      I had my doubts about the graphic with a flamed top, but it's stunning.

                        Amazing guitar and killer neck!
                        What's the wood of body back? Mahogany?
                        Congrats! Now, where is my custom shop order?

                            Very very nice! That finish is insanely cool [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]
                            Honestly there's pretty much nothing that I personally would have picked differently, very sweet overall package. Even the red EMG logos on those 89's really fit the guitar [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

                            How long was the waiting time btw?

                              Thanks everyone. The neck is just a bit bigger compared to my DK1, not by much however. I am not sure how it compares to a PC1. I asked for the DK1 profile and couldn't be happier. From inception to delivery, 21 months. 18 months from the time I gave Easton my money to delivery.
