Well, after gassing for a carved S100 since the first time I saw one, and gassing for a sunburst
one since I saw this post, The 'Carved One' now rests at the Right hand of the Hag,
in fullfillment of the scriptures. After spending countless hours wondering if Fixit
would ever consider parting with it, I decided to just ask him and put the demons to rest.
So one morning I woke up and logged on to LTG, I had 1 new message in my inbox. I was a very happy
man when his reply was "sure, I could do that". Zelko was happy to enable the transaction by allowing
the guitar to be shipped via his " MY U.S" account, and the rest is history. I instantly bonded with it,
sweet sound, perfect action and the neck is exactly the right width. It`s the only guitar I`ve played
all week. I made a few minor adjustments to suit my tastes and they are just cosmetic, as Tom had
already done a magnificent job with the restoration and setup. I replaced the pick up rings with NOS
ones I had as spares, as the ones on it had some extra holes drilled into them, I replaced the black pick
guard with a clear one with the Guild logo, and swapped the black toggle switch tip with a chrome one off my S90.
Many Thanks to Tom Fixit for being a pleasure to deal with, and to Zelko for ensuring the shipping process
was smooth sailing. My phone pics didn`t really show the amazing burst on this thing, for that just go to
the previous page for the great pics taken by Fixit and the before and after pics put together by Thunderface.
Cheers. Rob.
