Ok now that we're on the big F, what do you guys think of the white (instead of the black) PG?

My vote is for "Vintage Mint"

 

[theFixer]

Which reminded me of this pearl/turd, honestly listen for as long as you can, it's...... Well it's something

If your going with Tort you may as well throw a bridge cover and or pickup cover on as well.

I like that look more when the two whites are closer:

And to offset the F pic, here’s a pointy project on eBay:

A very amusing article - always wondered if someone put a Gibson neck on a Fender body (reversed Fenderbird?)

Remember When Gibson Tried to Market a Hendrix Signature Strat?

 

[Inky13]

Genesis is one of my favorite bands of all time, the absolute icing on the....icing. I can dig the SO album, its a radical departure from Genesis but everything else he has ever done has sadly eluded me. But this!. I love this.

Even the first three albums?

I liked the third album a lot. Haven't listened to it in a while so not sure how it holds up.

Here's another one I always wondered about (a reversed reverse-style T-bird) Wasn't aware of one being produced. Maybe not the most attractive T-bird, but least neck-dive will be minimized...

(Ducking as I say it) ... on a FSO a cream body needs a tort guard!

Look closely - not the established Gibson so-called non-reverse, but a gen1 T-bird flipped. (same shape more or less)

And some people need a slap around the back of the head with a wet kipper!

I have promised not to make jokes about gear so disregard that, just stick a really loud tort PG on it (it being the wet kipper!)

yeah totally noticeable. imho one must really be hungry for a NR to go for that..
i think a flipped NR would look better..

Even the first three albums?

Believe me, the first albums should have struck a feeling for me since he was still shaking off his Genesis skin while forging his solo path but that material seems way too weird for me. I tried but couldnt like it.

Hey! Don't hate on kippers, I really dig them with a poached egg and toast!

I love kippers, after I left the navy the first job I got was making kippers in Whitby, did that for 6 months and I loved it
