    Default The best kind of NGD

    FREE

    Won this little beauty tonight. Made by High school students. A couple who were getting married had a Social to raise money for their wedding. It's a Manitoba thing. It has their names on the headstock which has a 80's look tyo it but that will be coming off. Sounds good with the Marshall pocket amp it came with and my other amps as well. haven't opened it up yet so I don't know what kind of pickup is in it most likely a Generic.

    More pics to follow


    May you be half an hour in Heaven. Before the Devil knows you’re dead.

    It's just the pic angle double checked and it checks out.

    No, it's definitely off. If it was the pic angle the strings would look off in the same direction on both the neck and the pup, but the strings are closer to the bass side of the neck and the treble side of the pup.

    Google'd purpleheart wood Now that I look at it after seeing the results I'm thinking it is. I'm thinking just below that is Mahogany I could be wrong.
