take better off the fretboard, rotate the image so it'll be right side up when you play it instead of sideways ... looks pretty cool though :beer:

I like everything but the Better.....just doesn't look right.  Maybe get some Stars like that were on the logo going down the fretboard.  Other than the Better, I love it, definitely cool.

it's not made yet, it's in the process, i designed it so to speak with photoshop, using the poster that was advertising a couple of the tour dates.

Sorry man, but I think it's hideous ... only because of the choice of the image.  I'd WAY rather have an Appetite guitar or something... but I DO like the inlays ideas you have ... very slick.

I like it, but the inlay with 'better' and 'gn'r' isn't too cool. I would change that into some other original inlay things.

I think your work is cool, but personally i would try to make some other design of the freetboard. In one way i like the design on the body, but in another way i would like a little bit more GN?R stuff.

I would be happy to give you my opinion on some other design if you will send them to me.

I?m a big Slash, and a big GN?R fan for 20 years now. I a big collector of slash?s guitar and i have over 15 Gibson Lespaul myself, and alot of them is Slash signature, and models EXATLY like his.
I also got two of the VERY rare Slash Snakepit signature Les Paul from ?96. The thing is that i have decided to sell one off them.
I have been thinking about that for over a year, and it?s a very hard decision because there was only made 75 guitars and they was handpainted, and is today one of the most rare and hard to get Les Paul of all time, and the price will grov every day.
The reason i told you, was if yo could be interested.

Could somebody please tell me how to post picture on the board. I just can?t find out.

You can PM me if i can help you with something. :)

The Epiphone is not very rare IMO.  I think there was made between 500 & 1000 atleast, but maybe alot more. I really can?t remember.
I only got Gibson guitars, ecept of one mistake... I got one of the Epiphone Slash signature also. Ofcause it?s a nice and collectible model, but you CAN?T compare it to the Gibson in any way. If someone is interested in that one i would proberly be interested in selling that one also. I think i?ll think about it for the night.

The guitar looks amazing. I for one love the Better inlay, it'd look fantastic. Personally, I think the bodypaint should be tiny bit darker (same art will be fine, just a little darker)

If you don't want Better-inlays, just have I.R.S on the first three frets :D

Hi Alan

I was wondering is you have tryed to find out what it will cost to have Gibson to make a Costum guitar like this.
I might also be interested in making my own costum guitar, and have Gibson to make it.

So any ideas of the price???
