Ed Roman VVV

Post by shramiac »

Can't say if this body is still there as Roman's site has a lot of old posts still up (RIP Ed) but, if it still is and you don't mind the "harpoon" headstock and the body binding, this might be for you?

Promises made, crying in vain, all empty. Never accepting the blame and not letting go of the shame. A river of tears, as months turn to years, all wasted. On someone not willing to change.Now only a shadow remains! :(

Gee, I guess that headstock got them out of some sort of legal trouble with the guitar?

I think you are in the minority, LoL. I got in touch, they want $1750 for that body.

If I had it I would try to modify the headstock, remove the harpoon look.

LOL,
Vic, I believe that Ed Roman Guitars would make you any shape headstock that you desire. I'm kind of fussy about head stocks but I'm cool with that one because it is really different

Ha Ha Kev, I'm sure they would, but it seems this unfinished body is on special and made this way, so it is buy this one as is and save some money.

Keep it or modify it, up to you. Of course the easiest thing is to keep it like it is but I would need to mod the headstock.

I'm sure it's a quality piece, just needs to be finished off.

That page could use some updating and I've probably read it before but forgotten it.

I like how they say they will use any haedstock they want, ha ha.

Me too. I don't mind it cause it's different. Say that, IMO the reversed 3D Pear headstock was the logical evolution to go on a VVV guitar.
I got Jesus in my fax machine. I saw Ho Chi Minh down @ Burger King. I dated Vinnie Vincent as a Drag Queen. I still don't understand a f**kin' thing.
I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick ass and I'm all out of bubble gum.
