Well, yesterday I went to pick up my '07 Collectors from GC- they put in a new pre-amp, can, wiring and jacks. While he was at it, he addressed the minor fret issue. The guitar is near perfect! My out of pocket was $30 for a set-up. I am thoroughly happy- this worked out so well. I wanted to take some nice pics over the weekend- only thing is I don't have a red blanket! Is a non red blanket against the rules? :P Oooh, maybe I could find a fake bearskin rug- ya know it IS a BCS anyway...

OFC approved options other than a red blanket would be either on the grass in front of a Porsche or in a dramatic skyline pose in front of the factory .

Damon has also done some dramatic outdoor photos--the Space Needle and a huge tree in the background come to mind. Maybe the quality of the photo is related to the quality of the photographer (but not in my case).

If no blanket, at least get your feet in the shot.

OK here we go- umm ok, not exactly grass, but the weeds are healthy. The dogwood has blooms at least. And of course the customary "Porsche" shot!

Yes it is indeed rare! Only one in the world if I'm not mistaken.

Sigh, well it's back in the shop- didn't get to play it when I brought it home last Thursday; first chance I got was lat night. After about 10 minutes she cut out again. Tried a new battery, different amp and different cables- no luck. Still under warranty so it will be repaired at no expense to me. The tech said he replaced everything but the piezo pickup. Wonder if it could be that? Hopefully, this time will be the charm...

Sweet guitar!

But I do appreciate the fancy TRC you put on the N3oN. Some OFCers have been known to stick a Custom Legend TRV on Pegheads that don't have one so there are no stinking rules!

Thanks for the compliments. Well the latest is everything including the piezo pickup is being sent down by John -did I say he rocks?! Anyway, we'll see if it's the saddle pickup- if it's not that, we'll try the VIP. Like I said above-hopefully the third time is the charm.
