    Well if anyone would know it would be him. I'm sure he'll weigh in on the results thus far and give further tips.

              Looks great, although hard to tell from those pics. :)

              How about you tell US what it's like? :D

                How's the painting going in this heat and humidity? Is it setting up?

                              I think what I'm getting at is R2 or R3 nut for a M-100 neck?

                                Alright guys, the following question is for EMG or other active pup users.
                                What value cap should i throw in if im using 2 81's? I'm actually using Dragonfire Actives, but they should be comparable to EMGs.
                                If i have the option of a .1, .022, .033, or .047, which out of those would sound the metallicaiest.
                                Anyone happen to know what value Kirk used to use (or still does) in his Mummy or kh's?

                                  Looks good but why didnt you center the mummy between the pick ups? Everyone makes that mistake.

                                      According to this pick K]Kirks Mummy is in the center between the pick ups.
