This is a joke, right? Did you really get that beautiful guitar repainted? Dude, that guitar was freaking HOT.
To me, the Before llooked like furniture, This one I like better because the Sponge job isnt as obvious like alot of the others, I could live with this version :thumbsup:

Haha, no I didn't get it repainted. I swapped guitar bodies with a dude from the Caparison forum.

Oh man, I couldn't disagree more (obviously!) I love the look of guitars with dark stained wood or whatever it is. Man, that guitar was freaking awesome. That was the first elf shoe guitar I've looked at and loved.

Thats the beauty of personal preference my friend... BTW Check your PM's, Is there anything else you want me to include in the package?

I think it looks 100 times better now, and it's one of a kind. To each his own though, I know most of you guys hate the Caparison finishes. :lol: :LOL:
 
I really liked how it looked before, but I like natural wood finished guitars. Not a huge fan of the sponge paint jobs.

Does it sound different now?? Are the bodies made out of different wood types?

:)

Dude, I replied to your PM several days ago (or weeks?)
I sent another one, I got the one about the DA stuff, I was wondering if there was anything else that you wanted like Lion or Hurricane etc?

Haven't got to try it yet, but I've played a regular Horus model a bunch of times. This body is mahogany and the old one was walnut.
 
Just tried her out with the 5150 and I like the sound a little bit more than the walnut. The walnut was a little tighter and clearer, but the mahogany is a little bit thicker and warmer sounding. :thumbsup:
 
That kindergarten class did a damn fine job! Could you get me their number? Looks nicer than the others. :D
