I want a guitar with my last name on the headstock now!!!! :D

Jeez... I gotta edit out those ugly toes!

How to get your name on the headstock?

Finding a guitar builder with the same last name helps. Actually, the guy has been building guitars and selling them with blank headstocks. The idea of a logo had been considered but one was never done. So, I worked with him to develop the logo and produce the decals.

Dave :D

Ah! And all along I thought it was your name on your request!!!! Same last name builder... what were the odds....
BTW having had the privilege of a private preview (or prehear) I can attest it sounds terrific too. :wink:

You want "Picky" on your headstock? Oh well I guess it could be a sly double-entendre! :lol:

Here's a partscaster I pieced together and refinished the body with black nitro a few months back, my camera is not the greatest:

I love a black tele. Especially with the rosewood fingerboard. (But I had to go with ebony on mine to cover the black part of the desired color scheme). I had a black USA tele, with maple neck, in the late 80s. Another good one that somehow got away.

Basically a parts caster Esquire with a Seymour Duncan Broadcaster PU and a big honkin' neck. Me gusta mucho!
