Here's the Pacific Northwest version of the Bluebird!

I'm still looking for some knobs that go to 12...

Is there a "12" on the 12th fret?

This was more of a flash inspiration and the only investment was to paint a pickguard and TRC.
This neck will eventually reside on something else but it's fun for now.

The right way to go would include a Seahawk logo inlaid TRC and the Seahawk in flight sticker down where the Bluebird goes. A 12 at 12, knobs that go 0-12 and a "Beast Mode" switch should add another $0.50 to the value!

Voicing is nice and even with a tendancy to go distorted quickly and the playability is awesome.

I wonder if Paul Allen wants to come over and jam?

He is likely to buy it. Nothing less than 12 mill. Okay?!
