Congratulations Spike, on the birth of your new Shamray Custom Shop guitar (Serial number CS 0013)! We will post pictures of it's construction-in-progress from time to time here in this thread. For the curious, here are the specs on CS 0013: Based on Replica of 1980 Gibson Les Paul "silverburst" - finish color on Body Top, Body Back, Side Of Body, Back of Neck and Headstock in Greened (faded) silver-grey burst color. Black headstock facing with “split-diamond” pearl inlay.

I dont think anybody gets tired of building Silverbursts, they are rather interesting 'deluxe' guitars that require a lot of care to build. I certainly don't get tired of watching them as they get built!  btw i fixed the thread name

Daniel.. it's only the third, and Matt's looks like is has some pretty crazy customisation going on! The finish on this is (hopefully!) going to be somewhat different... I'm going for a permanent state of very slight greening. Michael, about the pickups... is there something that has the bassiness and vintage sound of the original pickups, but with the slightly more aggressive sound of a Seymour Duncan JB in the bridge and something pretty jazzy in the neck? Still Chernishev custom wound, of course... -Spike |

Spike: we could ask Chernishev to rewind the bridge pup a little hotter, which would make it sound a little louder and darker. For the neck position, you wont find anything more "jazzy" than the stock "1980" humbucker. Really, I'd suggest you try both pickups 'as nature intended'... they are a very serendipitous combination in this model. | |

Ok, I'll go with it, I guess I can always change the pickups out at some other time if needed. Thanks. |

Hey Michael, When you get back, can I switch back to having straplocks? I bought one of those locking straps that I plan to use on this guitar... and my current guitar fell off within 2 hours  Cheers |

Michael - what type of straplocks do you use? Can they not be the big, obvious ones, but instead ones that look almost exactly like normal strap buttons? I don't like the big bulbous thing on this... http://www.shamray.ru/gallery/pic/lpstu1.jpg | |

It could be Dunlop Strap-Locks, but we have to ask our local Dunlop's distributor. | |

?! Is that the old neck or the new one? If it's the new one, then fine, but the if the new neck is being built can I request a more "Gibson" font for it, instead of the funky lettering? |

Still waiting to hear about the inlay... I asked if they could change it to the more 'traditional' Shamray script logo. I think our logo artist might be a bit sad that nobody seems to like her latest "modern" Shamray logo design... (I like it, personally!) |

There is nothing wrong with the modern logo - however, as this is meant to be a '79 Silverburst, I don't think that it suits the character of the guitar. If I were ordering a guitar which was more "modern" (in terms of body shape etc.) then I would have no problems with the logo. If it is too much of a hassle to change it, then don't worry, but I would prefer a more traditional logo. Also, just to chip in my (amateur!) opinion - I study letter forms and fonts a lot, due to my interest in street art and graffiti. The logo follows what is known as a "Euro" style - unorthodox stroke widths (it looks like it's been written by a chisel tip held to make wide strokes on a sidestroke, and not on a downstroke as in traditional letterforms) and slight distortion of the "traditional" letter forms (for example the S). This gives a more "modern" look, as it deviates from the accepted norms of calligraphy. While this would be fine on a more modern guitar, I would recommend that you keep a traditional alternative for any guitar that is meant to be slightly older (Les Pauls, Strat/Telecasters especially!) Although I am not trying to fool anyone about the age of my guitar, I would like my guitar to look just like a "real" Silverburst, except that it is probably built better, looks better and plays better than the real thing (and, of course, says Shamray on the headstock!). Cheers, -Spike |

I think the new logo looks fantastic!!! I would even change the diamond inlay to something more modern to match it as well. Tell your inlay artist she did nice work!!!! | |

It doesnt show up too well in the pictures, but I chose a slightly darker silver tint that should look really nice. |
