I've decided to keep it.....I have kind of been wanting to strip the paint.....but that is probably a bad thing to do to this guitar......also thought about switching out the neck for a fatback warmoth neck.....but those were all stupid ideas.....was playing it last night and despite the fact that I like a really fat neck on a guitar this thing plays great.....it has a great neck on it.....and I have played the hell out of it......lots of fretwear.....so really I pretty much just need to get the electronics redone and put some new strings on it and get a set-up and it should be a great player again.

Well with the longest lived band -- ----One of the dudes is in California working on a PHD. The other is in Colorado working for Qwest. Pretty far from where I am and neither is probably playing any more. We did get together and jam back in 2007.....set up a drum machine through a pedalboard (Major Big Black influences)......had an 8 track cassette recorder set up to record it all...don't know what happened to the tapes.....PHD dudes girlfriend played an old organ......we got some Can meets Television with some strong Butthole Surfer vibes going.....sounded pretty good.....Twenty minute Krautrock Psych extravaganzas that often broke down into utter chaos.
I need somebody to collaborate with again....any of you dudes anywhere close to northeast Iowa?

Breed it with my musicmaster.

Pretty sure the baby would be a Black Mustang.

If you do end up swapping the neck, make sure you put that thing in the B/S/T.
