ARRRRRRGH!!!!

UPS stopped by my house when I was getting groceries. And apparently they won't deliver it tomorrow, I have to wait until Monday. >:( >:( :( :( :'(

They NEVER come to my house that early. Gah!

As it arrived, with the black 'guard:

I might leave the pickup and knobs black, or maybe have them go back to white.

Thanks! I love Paul's original pickguard.

Man, the neck on this is beefy, but in the perfect sort of way. And that P-90 is a real chime-to-growl critter. :-*

Yep, that’s it. He only made one like it. Never heard so much versatility out of one pickup using the volume and tones. One of my favorite guitars I’ve owned. Also, it’s just comfortable

I ended up trading it and a Gretsch to CME for a 66 jag

Sweet. This is the one then. Has CME paperwork in the case.

Thanks! I'm going to go back to all white with the knobs and pickup cover as soon as I get around to restringing it. Rick Beato might like 8's, but not me!
