 I have the gear I just need the motivation. I have done commercial work in the past.
I'm sure Carlo would assist in that re-working, or your local luthier, especially if the RI is not giving you the love ...
Most round here know I'm not afraid of altering to suit, as long as the basic tools fit the bill ...
Scott's often gone the extra mile when it comes to reworking too, but then again, he's got the workshop to go with ... ;)
Mind you ...

Scott ... you don't do your own spray-work, do you ... ?

I feel the need for a shed in your life ... :mrgreen:

If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

 At the moment I am looking for commercial space for the shop. ;D

That bird is cherry, pun intended. I don't understand why some people think the NR shape is ugly. To me it has more sensual and almost voluptuous feminine curves compared to the angular rev shape. I love both and the even more curvy LP shape as well.
Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.
