Have you tried these places, proroby?

Holy shit! This is so goddamn'd sexy :love:
I never realized how much I want something like this until right this second.
It WAS.... :cry: My last show with my last band the lead guitarist broke a string right before his bowed guitar solo, so he grabbed this guitar which I was using as my backup (because he was too cheap to buy his own.... :grumpy: ) and he mauled the finish and pickguard with the bow. I WAS FUKKIN PISSSSSSEEEDDDDD. :mad: So I stripped the parts and used them for other projects and I'm in the process of refinishing the body. I gotta do alot of sanding to smooth out all the scratches and then refinish it in the same stain as skully originally used. Then I shall build it better then before!!!

I picked up a CSL copy over the summer to turn into a backup baritone. Bridge slot was poorly routed by the previous, previous owner. At this point I just want to throw a Manlius P90 in the neck and slap a sticker over the gap+get rid of the p/u selector and two knobs. i always use the neck pickup on my baritone anyways.
