RJLII Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 Greetings all - We have a member whose name escapes me with an archtop (575 I think) that is natural with cream plastics and gold hardware. It is the classiest look I’ve ever seen. I was checking it out at a PSP a couple years ago. I’ve seen photos in the gallery but can’t find them. Point me the right direction? - Rob

TalismanRich Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 Hey Steiner, don't look now, but some thief has run off with your knobs and pickguard. I can lend you a pair of small vice grips if you ever need to change the volume or tone controls.

I can lend you a pair of small vice grips if you ever need to change the volume or tone controls. Being a full hollowbody, aren't they called finger rests? Screw it, you're right; pickguard. I'll need something for the acoustic's bridge holes too. No need for vice grips, I throw the pick in that convenient slot, spin it - and it's good to go! Thanks for the offer!
bolero Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 you could clamp 4 sets of vice grips onto those knobs, and leave them there...think of the sustain you'd get!
RJLII Posted October 24, 2018 Author Posted October 24, 2018 Nope, that's not it. I'll look at some old PSP posts and see if I can find it.
kbp810 Posted October 25, 2018 Posted October 25, 2018 Probably not me, as I haven't been to a PSP in a while (and I'm usually not referenced in conjunction with "classy" LOL)- but I had a natural 575 with cream pickup covers (over Phat Cat HB sized P90's), and gold hardware. Can't seem to find a picture of it at the moment, but will scour my archives when I get home tonight (curse you photobucket!).
Gitfiddler Posted October 26, 2018 Posted October 26, 2018 Spectrum's 575 Custom is just sick!! It kicks most Sweet 16's to the curb.
bolero Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 nice...although a checkerboard pickguard would surely look better on there? :D

RJLII Posted October 29, 2018 Author Posted October 29, 2018 I looked in the Gallery and I'm pretty sure this is the one. Gorgeous!

Factory installed Throbaks with custom pots and caps. After market wood knobs, wood rings and bridge. Rosewood 25.5 fingerboard. Worth the wait.
