High Flying Bird Posted November 25, 2011 Posted November 25, 2011 Guit, that is one good looking work!
pressure Posted November 25, 2011 Posted November 25, 2011 I have a Mille DC being built with a lot of customization. Due sometime around February.
DeLorean Posted November 25, 2011 Posted November 25, 2011 Three of mine were custom orders. My Super Eagle, my 575 Custom and my 357. All three got 1 3/4" nut width and ebony fingerboards as the main customization. The SE got a catalog color (Burnt Amber) and the other two Vintage Wine Burst. The 357 was built with P-Rails pickups in the Triple Shot rings. I'll be ordering a custom 157 as soon as money looks right again, I just got a wonderful English Mastiff puppy (35.2 pounds at 9 weeks old!!) as a birthday present this week so it won't be as soon as I'd like... (I'm the only source of income in the house at the moment...)
StevenTari Posted November 25, 2011 Author Posted November 25, 2011 I have a Mille DC being built with a lot of customization. Due sometime around February. WOW! So's mine, in Febuary. And mine's also from the Mill. DC. So what did you do to yours? What color, Pup's and anything else new.
kbp810 Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 Sure Could be the split block inlays... but I really dig your Prospect Flyin Brian!
pressure Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 Hey StevenTari, This will be my blues version of a Johnny Smith.I have supplied Stevens Design humbuckers. It will have a 5 piece neck. The finish is Chestnut burst. There are a lot of other different things and when I get the guitar I will post pictures and a full list of the custom features. Thanks for asking.
golferwave Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 Here's the one I ordered in 2010. It took about 4 months to arrive.
heritagefan7 Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 Guit, that is one good looking work! git....that is just beautiful!!!!....It it a sunset burst?
Gitfiddler Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 git....that is just beautiful!!!!....It it a sunset burst? Thank you, and Yep, Sunsetburst it is! Marv built me a masterpiece with his bare hands.
BrianToth Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 Could be the split block inlays... but I really dig your Prospect Flyin Brian! Thanks man. I got the ebony board and the split blocks so it would feel like the finger board on my Sweet 16.
BrianToth Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 Actually I realized that my sweet 16 was custom built, but not for me. It's 1/2" thinner than standard, but the person who ordered it never picked it up so I got it as NOS after it had been in the store for a while. My good fortune to be sure.
rooster Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 I had my black-and-tan H150 built for me. I asked them to find the plainest, hardest piece of maple in the shop for the top. I didn't want any flaming or figuring on the maple. They did so, and that guitar has a chirp to end all chirps with a huge girthy midrange and a solid-as-a-rock bottom end. Great piece of work, it's my favorite of the 3 I have. rooster.
dblazer Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 I did two custom orders, in 1999 I got a Prospect/Blues Deluxe through Ed Roman, and a couple of years ago an H-137 through Jay Wolfe. Both have moved on now, the Prospect didn't really sound different from the H-140 and the H-137 was beautiful, but I like the H-140 better.
