I don’t know man. Those string ends sticking up on the tuners might leave marks.

I didn't like any of his other sig guitars either. But to me, the black/white separation disappears with the flames.

Not my first rode -AY -O -- I have a "work around" for that

Really nice! I am not a VEE lover, but if I was...there is something about that guitar that really appeals to me. I'm trying to figure out how it's possible to have a black/white flame guitar that does not seem over the top, kind of "tasty". But it does somehow do that!

I got it all tuned up and I'm ready to give it a go. The first thing I noticed was how well balanced it is. At 7.8 lbs. it's really comfortable with no neck dive. I'm using a spare Gibson strap right now until I find THE ONE that really compliments it. I'm thinking some kind of Yin/Yang design. But it has to be a quality strap.
Now for the test drive.

Second, see our @TVvoodoo and get a real strap for it!

I have been browsing his catalog, but maybe I was just exhausted from looking at so many on other sites I could have missed it. I'll look again. His work is beyond beautiful.

Do you have anything that has the black and white Yin/Yang symbol on it?

Had a chance to finally plug it in. Have you ever made an instantaneous connection with an instrument? I knew the first moment I saw it that it was going to be awesome. Little did I know how awesome it was going to sound. I knew all along that the amp I wanted to test it out on first was the DSL. I wanted to fully appreciate those pickups without the volume being too loud. The DSL red channel fits the bill. I also connected both A cabs for the fun of it. This is truly a marvelous guitar that I hope to spend years getting to know.

Thats a gorgeous axe and to answer your question thats how i feel about my epiphone Richie Faulkner signature, just an instant connection, the specs on it just meshes so well with me. Congrats on the awesome axe!
