Well, I gutted much of my collection last year(a couple made it back to this forum under new ownership) and I'm re-building
the team. First is this one thanks to Dennis @ Adirondack Guitars:

BODY WOOD: Semi-Hollow Swamp Ash Premier Honey Burst Finish
No F-Holes (More gain with out feedback)
Optional Wood Binding on Body
NECK WOOD: Hard-Rock Maple with Maple fingerboard
NECK PROFILE: Optional G&L #1A with 12" radius and 1 5/8" nut-width "SLIM C"
NUT: 100% natural bone
FRETS: 22 medium jumbo, nickel, Plek dressed
TUNING KEYS: 12:1 ratio, sealed-back - Will replace with Sperzel locking tuners
BRIDGE: traditional boxed-steel bridge with individual brass saddles
CONTROLS: 3-position pickup selector, volume, tone
Pearl Pickguard
CASE: G&L deluxe tolex
Cheers,

Will,
She's a beauty. With no F-Hole that is an Albert Collins set up to dream for, enjoy.

Oh my word. Congrats.
Lefty anything (let alone a BB) is hard to come by in my part of the world (down under). So much so I am seriously considering having a lefty ASAT classic semi hollow turned into a BB
But that one ticks just about all the boxes I think. Enjoy

Re: NGD - Incoming BBoy Left Handed
Will, that's one beautiful Bluesboy! I haven't got the itch to acquire any more guitars for a while, but I haven't disposed of any either. With my hobby band, which has started to gig somewhat regularly now, we play a few songs that require a whammy bar, and I just can't bring myself to bring along multiple guitars to switch around when we play. So I've only been checking out instruments with tremolo.
A Space Tone 30 should be glorious! Pretty much the only amp I use is my Atomic Space Tone. I'm looking forward to hearing your ST 30.
