MUSICMAN PORN THREAD

  • 2 weeks later...

Finally got around to taking a couple of pics!

The first Sterling is one I've had since 2001 and I think the colour is blue pearl and I replaced the original black pick guard with an abalone one I recently bought from Dasbootman on Ebay.

The second is a Sterling I recently bought from Shockwave here on the forum. It's a very strange but beautiful purple\burgundy colour and I replaced the vintage white pearloid pickguard with a black pearloid one, again purchased from Dasbootman.

They're both strung with DR Black Beauties and going through my new (to me) Aguilar GS 112 and 112NT cabs I bought last week from Legion here on the forum - The iAmp800 was bought from Anthomp very recently too. :)

+1 - I've saved at least a tenner on each my pickguards compared to that site.

I recognise that door - wasn't there a picture going around with a G&L in front of it?[/quote]

I had a go on Legion's Sterling HH before he sold it - an HH is now on my wishlist. :)

My latest one:


Trans teal formerly with black scratchplate, changed to white by me.

My first one:


Both of them are '96 ones but the trans teal has a plastic battery compartment compared to the metal screwed in cover that the black one has. The trans teal is massively lighter too.

Nice! :) Also my guess to the weight difference is that the teal one will be ash bodied and the black one something else, probably alder. They used to use prettier grained woods on the trans finish rays. Not sure if they still do or not.
