    I love except maybe the logo, but the gold definitely looks killer on White. Ever since the video for Power Love by Lion came out in the late 80's, I've wanted a 2 hum soloist in white with gold hardware. It worked for Doug Aldrich.

        There are very few guitars where I think that gold hardware looks good, so my vote is to swap in the black.

          Only the headstock logo looks a big gaudy to me. I think a black logo and gold pickup ring would make it perfect.

              ok, most ppl like it; several vote no i do think the headstock looks gaudy. well, the thing doesn't stay in tune with that trem. i do have a gold ofr so i guess i'll put that on her and play her until... i feel like changing the hardware to black.

              i doubt i'll sell it. sorry, coloradoman. plus i can't seem to get rid of the grid imprint on the back of the body... it's from the cushion inside of the case. any ideas? i tried "goo gone" but it didn't work.

                  I haven't replied yet because my answer will always be the same. It'll look better with black hardware. Every guitar will. I'm very one dimensional about this and many other things.

                    How did you do the logo?
                    actually i bought this guitar on ebay as is now so i didn't do the headstock. but unfortunately it's a decal not waterslide, and it's cleared that way (with no sanding) , so you run your finger over it and you feel the bumpiness of the logo.... at first i thought it was carved on there then thought about it and realized it's just a thick a$$ decal sticker and cleared over it.

                      In a sea of guitars that all look the same.. that one stands out. I like it just the way it is.
                      It would probably look even better if you swapped the black pickups for creme or maybe some custom painted gold pickups.
