First Act Custom on ebay

Not a fan of EMG's but this guitar is sick! Someone here should pick it up.

First Act Custom Shop "Sheena" **Factory Second** | eBay

I had a custom shop Sheena & it was a great guitar.

Prepare for the on-slaught of people who read First Act and don't realize they have a top of the line custom shop and think they only make Wal-Mart toy guitars.......


I really like this one - flat black and maple are beautiful together.

Yea man it's cheap, they are cleaning house. from my understanding one the head guys from Gibson left & started the USA custom shop at FA. I've played two USA customs & both were top notch from the hardware to the woods. If I needed a six I would sure think about it.

That fretboard,

*edit - they just sold some that had a H-S-H config, which in itself unique for the Sheena.

No one's going to do that because most people on this forum who know about First Act know they make custom shop guitars, and the fact that making a thread about a $20 guitar on ebay would be silly.

Also dat maple.

That is stunning. Neck heel looks horrific though. I'd love to get a First Act custom but I have noticed their neck heels are monstrous.

I'm not usually a fan of their stuff asthetically, but I really like that. Looks pretty badass. Would look better with an ebony board though. Wonder what the reserve is set at.

I dig that. A lot. I wouldn't mind trying one of these out, but I doubt I'd ever buy one. Regardless, that's tasteful.

Hate all you want but Lee Malia from bring me the horizon's signature First Act is by far my favorite. Especially now that his personal ones have BKP Warpig in the bridge and DiMarzio True velvet in the neck.

Lonestar from Darkest Hour has a FA custom and he never plays it because it won't stay in tune, despite numerous set ups. I got to mess around with it, and the thing was junk. I have heard that other people love theirs though.

If you go to the seller's other items, they have another one of these with an ebony board and a red arcade style killswitch.
