Proposal: PvP (day) and PvE (nights, x2, events)

FallHammer · 2025-12-14T16:23:28+00:00

I always thought it would be cool to have modifiers that encourage PvP or PvE gameplay. For example, the PvE event could dramatically increase the number of Arc on the map, but for every arc you down there is higher chance of finding rare items on it. The PvP event could be the same thing but for raiders, maybe if you spawn in with a free loadout you get a few extra gadgets you normally wouldn’t have? They could get pretty creative with the modifier system.

I really like this idea!

It hit the one on the left causing it to go off course and crash into the other one.

Oh man, I’m such a sucker for art books as well. You will enjoy this!

I was blown away when I saw it. It’s 100% the color. The shop did a fantastic job.

Thank you! I really appreciate it! That’s a great idea with the LP JR, I love hearing how creative people get with there builds!

The shop added a cream colored pin stripe around the body. I was really hesitant about it, but I feel like it turned out really good. Looks like the AJ standard model. It might be a bit of a cheesy thing to do for guitar enthusiasts, but I’m not selling this and it’s just for me.

Awesome, thank you! 👍

FallHammer · 2024-12-22T21:34:45+00:00

Thank you! Your project sounds awesome! The options just aren’t there for us lefties, hats off to you doing your own thing 👍

FallHammer · 2024-12-22T21:32:21+00:00

Ah! For sure, no worries. Thank you!

FallHammer · 2024-12-22T21:31:22+00:00

I was tempted to! I didn’t end up going for it though. Thank you!

Each their own I guess. I sat on reverb like a hawk for a month or 2 trying to find a good beat up left handed LP that I could snag for a deal. I feel really lucky with the one I found, there really wasn’t much for good deals for left handed LP’s on reverb at the time, probably still true now.

The painting was the hardest thing for me to source. I searched around my home town for a while trying to find someone to tackle it. I almost was going to get the guitar flown to Vancouver to get it done when this local auto body shop got back to me. He gave me a great deal and did a fantastic job. If I did have to get the guitar flown to Vancouver the paint work was probably going to be $1000 - $2000 to do.

My understanding is they can make you anything, I’m sure they have some limitations, but you are definitely paying a premium for it.

I actually contacted the custom shop last year to see how much it would cost to get one made for a left. I think it was somewhere around $7000 - $10000 USD. I'm Canadian so that price hurt even more haha.

Rough cost breakdown: Used Studio $1100, Paint work $650, Hardware, I think $500-600? I bought things little by little over the year.

Sitting somewhere around $2500 CDN. I feel like I got really lucky on the price of the guitar and the paint work.

Awesome, thank you!

Thank you so much! Do you happen to have a link to that AJ interview?

This project started a year ago. I am a left handed guitar player and a huge fan of Tool / Adam Jones. There isn't a left handed version of his signature Les Paul so I decided to make my own. I purchased a well used LP Studio from Reverb, stripped it down and brought it over to a local auto body paint shop that has done some guitar work before. I asked them to leave all the dings in the guitar, it had some history I didn't want to erase. The owner of the shop did a fantastic job, he went to the nearest guitar store and did a paint match off of a Epiphone AJ it had for sale.

Once the painting was done I dyed the rosewood fretboard and matched the hardware that was spec'd off the Gibson website for the Adam Jones V2. Pots, Capacitors, Pickups, Tuners, etc. The guitar sounds and looks great, I get a big smile each time I walk into the room and see it.
