    Small update, managed to find a case that fits. Tried the Thomann own brand case, but it was a touch too small, sent it back and ordered the Gator DW Extreme.

    Quite cool, you get an empty space and a shed load of inserts to fit various 'pointy' guitars. You then velcro the right shapes to the sides with the guitar in place, fits really well.

    Thanks @sawyer :)

    Didn't pay any postage or customs on either this or the V kit I've started, not sure if I just got lucky, worth dropping an email to Phil.

    That thing gives me the raging horn!
     so if you fancy a reissue of a guitar they never made in a colour they never used then it probably isn't too overpriced.

    With the arrival of the Chloe V imminent, with its proper ebony fretboard, I thought I'd have a go at staining the neck on the explorer. Using a Minwax ebony stain pen, I applied over 3 days. 

    It's not black, but it's certainly a lot darker and looks black from a distance :)
