Nice Fury!

Did you see mine at the beginning of the thread

Got it back in June

Oh, it didn't even click that's what it was, I've never seen one in a red burst before. Yours is in much nicer shape than mine, this one was an eBay mistake from many years back, I just recently got the neck into playable shape and am in the process of redoing the electronics.

Here's one I put together.

Ooooo, nice! :drool:

Tell us more about it.

Details are trifles, but trifles make perfection and perfection is no trifle.

Make sure you check out the one @JRA put together. ;)

Oh thank you! The body I got earlier this year on ebay. The seller couldn't remember who made it back in the 90s. I added a Schaller roller bridge and a pair of Bartolini's passive with VVT. The neck is an import that had a blank paddle headstock. I carved it to resemble an early Guild Pilot. It has a jazz width.

Nice pin striping on your R'n'M. :drool:
Did you do that or have it customized or is it 'stock'?

Is that a Filter Tron/Thunder Tron Gretsch/TV Jones pup on there?
Thanks! I was lucky to find a pin stripe legend in my own backyard (actually across the river), Jim “Dauber” Farr, member of the Drag Racing Hall of Fame. I asked him to do whatever he wanted and he even clear coated every line.

The pickup is a TV Jones SuperTron bridge position, which is exactly the same as the ThunderBlade, except the cover.
