Some shots of my finished 520 NM.
Thanks to all that have helped me along, and some inspirational pics along the way when I was exhausted and discouraged.

That is Schweeeet!
Now git rid of dem knobs before the Ibanez police show up at your front door and confiscate that axe!
A set of black Gibson speed knobs ala
Les Paul Custom
or Ibanez cosmo black metal barrels would be perfect. Black plastic Strat knobs would be cool also, but the Gibsons would be my first choice.

YOu guys need to get off those knobs...
I cant find good looking one's anywhere (G center here had the old
Les Paul
style only)
As soon as I find a good source, they will be changed, along with the one's on my 570CT, I hate those metal knured knobs.

man, at first i thought you guys were just giving him hell, but GD!!! those are like zits on a fine girl. you don't wanna look, but "the force compels you". man, i would almost send you some knobs to get rid of those. i think the regular strat knobs would keep the whole scarred and agressive look going.

It does look cool.
I think it needs a leedle beety more
steel wool
action, to Nunofy it a bit - I've never seen a Tung body so shiny.
Here's
a pic on my site of another Tung oiled RG body, for comparison.
Nice work tho', you're a brave soul.
