Graham Wheeler assembled this for me. Warmoth swamp ash body and AAA maple neck, quality tuners, a sexy neck plate and Line 6 electronics make this a perfect Function BandContinue readingWarmoth/Line 6 Variax Strat
Vintage J160E Psycho

Vickers Les Paul
Stars – what can I say? This is one heavy beast, all that hardware on it.
James Trussart “Willy DeVille”
