    I never thought that a B.C. Rich would look good with pinstriping (maybe except the Mockingbird).

    The Explorer is done, it isn't that 100% perfect as if a professional pinstriper would have done it but I really like it and I just paid 35 €.
    I have to clean it when the lacquer is completely dry.

    I like the cross! Looks pretty good!

    If she used One Shot enamel make sure you put a good coat of wax over it every once in a while

    Thanks friends! Now I've slept one night and I still like it when I see it - so it's great


    BTW: Yeah Amon Amarth shows are really great, I've seen 'em 3 times (2006, 2007, 2008), really powerful and amazing show.

    Sweet, man. I'm not even a big fan of Explorers but I really dig that. Nice work by your friend.

    I like the truss rod cover. That's a nice touch.

    Rock it hard, man.
    Every love that made me lose my reasoning. Every chord that made my conscience ache. Every day spent counting hours. Well, none of them comes close to singing back a song inside my head.

    I remember calloused hands and paint-stained jeans, and I remember safe-as-houses self-belief.
