you could get one of their reissue-vintage "H15 Bobkats" (or a cheaper actual-vintage one from eBay) , carve a bunch of X's on it, replace the bridge with a shattered drumstick secured w/ ducktape, attack w/ a file, and have a replica of the "battle scarred harmony" from the sonicyouth.com gearography! BURNING SPEAR!

Damn, why couldn't they have had those 6 years ago when I was actually into that sort of thing?

Holy shit you got that cheap. Let us know how it ends up.

if it is to become a drifter i'll start a project thread. it probably will, because i hate les pauls unless they have p90s or mini pickups
