Go for it man!
There has been a lot of talk from people about building this guitar, but I have never seen one completed yet...I will certainly give it my best shot!
By the by, who owns Paul’s Pink Ibanez Epiphone?
Not a fucking pic of it anywhere...

Wow this should be a cool project. Cant wait to see it finished, your destroyer/iceman i saw looks amazing, hope this is just as good! I always wanted to build a replica of bruces green epi, maybe i will now haha.
About pauls pink epi, i heard from somewhere that it was auctioned off on a japanese radio station a few years back, maybe im wrong but thats what i seem to remember for some reason lol Hope someone can back me up on this!
Cant wait for updates, keep up the good work

Thanks for the complements!
How well I make it depends on how many pics I have, and how much detail I can capture...
As for the colour I don't know...I love them both!
I could always make two!
I wish we could get a hold of that guy that has the Pink Epi and get some details...but as we all know that will NEVER EVER happen...

I have now cut out the Ibanez Epiphone [TM] shape!
I am all covered in fine dust after sanding it!  ...took about an hour...
I have attached a spare FB I had lying around, just to see where everything goes...
Enjoy the pic!

I thought he smashed his green one at a concert.
Surg could provide you better pics from the epiphone, since he's got Paul's pink one (now sparkle red)

Has Surg got Paul's 60's modded Olympic?
