Hello,

Here are a couple updated pics of my Epi LP that had a broken headstock. I polished it out this weekend and I am waiting for my black pickup rings to arrive. I have a set of cream covers with a pickguard and toggle washer but I don't think they would look good on off white. I was going to paint it a different color when I bought those.

The first picture came out white white but the second pic is more like the off white that it is.

The fretboard is ebony as well as the headface.

I have a couple DiMazio classic PAF's for now. Can't wait to hear the bugger, I don't have a dual humbucking guitar yet.

IF that is an Epiphone please tell us about the neck/headstock. I've never seen a LP with that headstock design from Epiphone.

Thanks guys!

Spud. This Epi had a broken headstock and stripped truss rod. I thought I would do something different and make a Firebird headstock for it. It looks kinda weird but I don't mind. It has been a fun build.

Thanks oldguy for the link. I had to take a bunch of pics out of my webspace and thought I lost all those pictures.

Thanks again all.

I was kinda wondering about the headstock too. I think it's pretty cool looking! Can't wait to see (and hear) the finished product! Keep up the good work M29! :dude:
