Hi folks,
I thought I'd post some pics of an 8 string Flame Top Rodeo I just finished.
I was cleaning up my shop and I came across some pearl blanks so it prompted me to do a little something on this one. I figured to keep with the western swing vibe a steer skull seemed appropriate!
The Lollar pick up is to DIE FOR!!!

Beautiful work Jason!
(BTW - I tried emailing you but it seems like your email server, "comcast", has put mine, "losmail", on a black list so I can't get through. I've reported the problem to "losmail" and they promised to fix it.)

| Wow, I wish that was a six stringer! Speaking of which I have also e-mailed you, about placing an order. Did you receive it? |

| So nice, Jason. Is that a P-90? |

Stephen, I'll be emailing you very shortly,
Jon, it's sort of like a P-90. I'm not a pick up "guru" so I don't know how Jason Lollar changes the amount or direction of the windings and other variables. It sure looks like a P-90 (or a very close relative) It's a beefed up reproduction of the classic Gibson Grand Console pick up. I know you I sound like a broken record...but Lollar pick ups are fantastic. |
