Black again, I did a shit job touching up the paint that came off when the tuners were removed. Most wouldn't notice it, but because I did it, I can see the flaws every time I look at it.
It plays well, still need to work on that tone pot though, it's like an always on wah at this point.
Close up of the pickups, making that silvertone/gibson pup fit involved a lot of interesting routing.

Thanks, the guard (pickguardian) hides a lot of "oops" moments

Dude that looks rad.
Was that neck an aftermarket make or did you pull it off another no name guit?
Also, as noted by others, good job on the silvertone.
Very fucking cool.

It was from a run of b&b paddle necks that someone on offsetguitars lined up a few years back, there was maple and rosewood. It's a decent neck, but the truss rod hole is ugly, and the paddle needed wood added to make a cbs style headstock.

I know they're not the beloved vintage stuff that seems to be popular anymore, but I added a few more to my arsenal..
Aside from my standard ESP Horizon, I started rotating into the mix a Schecter KM-6 with Duncan Black Winter PU's and the ESP MH-2015 Anniversary model with EMG 57/66 set.
I also have a new ESP Horizon E-II on the way that I'll be putting Bare Knuckles in.
