It's pretty easy. I got the Torche/Boris split recently, and my first thought was "Hey, cool, a new Torche song!".

Josh Newton, the bassist for Every Time I Die, had this sweet jam made.

I believe he also has a Delgada.

Well...I still respect your opinions no matter how wrong they are :)*

Anyway...how much does it actually cost to get something from their custom shop?

I dunno. I dont think its that pricey considering what les pauls sell for. I wont be getting anything from them as my craving for an electrical has consumed me.

Agreed.

One both counts. I want an EGC so hard. More accurately, I want to be good enough to justify dropping that kind of coin on a guitar that would conceivably last me a lifetime, at which point I would not hesitate to ring up EGC and get busy.

You should get an EGC shaped like an SG2000.

Please do it so I don't have to.

Sometimes I put on Sigur Rós. But usually without any music at all.

My only experience with First Act is my first guitar, a Fat Strat-style hunk that's currently in my closet waiting to be rebuilt. My only beef with it is that the hardware is shit, and I couldn't find good tuning machines that would fit. :idk: It got the job done. For some reason I enjoy the sound of a cheap humbucker.

This guy's hanging out on the Guitar Center used site for $500 (actual guitar is in Michigan). Besides that, all they have are the cheapy ones.
