    Sweet looking axe. I´ve seen those guitars in Fuzz from time to time, but I dont think that I have seen one in real life. Very nice finish, photoflame?
    I can't say that I've given up on a flanger cause I've never liked the effect either. I also can't say the same about Tremolo. I hate them both equally. - Tone2TheBone 2009

    What does the silver birch sound most like - is it warm like mahogany or more bright like ash?

    the closest type of wood to silver birch is spruce, but it's a tad harder than spruce but that's the closest one.
