great looking guitar! i bet it plays and sounds just as good. the only other Chapin ive played was Josh Smiths and it had 13s on it but man it was a great player. and whats up with the "secret buzz killer circuit"?

[flyingvees]

Dont let Josh fool you, the 13's are for show only, he is really using 8's....lol I dont want to get any sniper action going but basically I am quieter in positions 1-3-5 then I am in 2-4 and those are quiet....For the noisy club/small venue this has solved the buzz fiasco without changing tone or having to turn it off or on....Something new that's all Bill.....Thanks for the complements...

looks killer dude!!!

very cool! its great that companies like Chapin, Suhr and Tyler are addressing the single coil noise issue. Ive got Suhrs SSC system in my last guitar and it rules. anyway, enjoy that thang!

Thanks guys...Now I wait for my Fiesta Red Tbird with maple neck....That should round out the stable nicely...

Ah, yes.....you remember my maple neck/Fiesta Red (British style) "Hank a Houla"?
Many people think that it is the prettiest of my bunch.....
Best, Pete.
