thanks guy's ...... I can't believe how fast they got it done !!..... I figured another month , it'll be here before Christmas ..lol , I ordered it Nov 20-ish ..... I went back and forth on the pickguard , pearloid , 1 ply black , 3 ply black and then ordered white , might get me a black one later as I have trouble deciding items like that ..... I did want full model decal instead of the "model delete" but I won't complain about that ...... I sure hope it's light

Wow, that was fast! Love the color, it is one of more frequent color I pick when I'm playing on the guitar generator. Congratulations and Happy Holidays!

Hey Eric,

Happy Holidays indeed! Took me a while to post on yer new beauty, as I have been digging the color and trying to figure out exactly what color that is. In G&L terms, what color is that?

Enjoy her over the holidays and get those jingle bells rockin'! :alright:
Cya,
Sam

It's here :evilgrin: and love it ..... it weighs 6.5 pounds , balances real good , especially since the neck is probably as heavy or close to the body weight ..... so far I'm really digging the Classic Plus C ( 1 11/16 nut and string spacing) , feels so close to a Classic C that it is super easy to switch back and forth to the Classic C and Plus C , so now my fingers fit between the strings a little better than the 1 5/8 so maybe I'll be able to play a little better ....... I'll get some day light pictures tomorrow , the Tangerine Metalic looks beautiful as does the maple neck though I'm second guessing the pickguard color , kinda wish I would of got the 3 ply black but that's easy to change later ...... don't know what it is about ASAT's ?? ... but they are really growing on me , plus it's nice owning a real light weight one ..... this thing is going to get played , and don't hesitate on the Plus C neck if you like the Classic C , G&L did it again !!

WOW!
+ I think the white guard looks really good on it.
And no-logo looks smart on a painted headstock face too.
That's gorgeous...
