I really like the color a lot.I have a 400X crossover on order and decided on natural birdseye but eveytime I see the color of someone else's guitar I want it too! Have fun with it. ------------------

Wow. That is sooooo beautiful! Are the keyed Williams better than the keyless? |

Thanks guys, the color is blood red and it looks a lot better in person. As far as keys, just a personal preference I guess. |

I like the look of the wooden neck. Nice color, too.
8 pedals seems like a lot for an extended E9. What's the copedent?------------------

Did it look like it might be ready to ship? Even at 51 I'm like a big kid waiting for Santa or UPS to come.------------------

Bobby,
The copedent is a little unusual, my own concoction, besides the normal emmons stuff. Well I will say I have a pedal lowering 12th string 6 frets down to Bb, that is kind of fun. |

Dick,
Looks like he has the top is done (which is beautiful), but don't think any of the bottom yet. Bet you can't wait. |

Delvin, I noticed the knee levers are longer than usual. Did you order them that way? Just curious |

No, I didn't order anything special, as far as I know the knee levers are his standard stock. Maybe he changed them over the years.

Delvin, that is an awesome looking guitar. Bill builds the best in my opinion and he is a real gem to work with. I have palyed several Williams, my latest being like yours a single 12 with 8 X 7 but I play the universal which is identical except the 9th string is gone. I love it. As far as tuning keys verese keyless, I have had 2 keyless guitars and I think that the keys would most likely be better. The keyless has the benefit of being lighter and smaller, but I thinks that the keyed guitars have more overtone response. I love my Willy. Albert Svenddal------------------
