And it's absolutely stunning, with all those features it's the mother of all customs as far as I'm concerned. Beautiful instrument, must be able to deliver some thunderous sounds...

It's enough to make me think about a 6 string. LOOK at those fingerboard inlays + front LEDs!!!!

Without a doubt, this beautiful work of art puts the "Custom" in Featured Custom. I think my favorite line in the vital stats checklist is "Continous wood everything!"

Yet another fantastic work of art. Is it just me or does the tailpiece look slightly out of line with the bridge?

It looks to me like the string alignment is right on....the tailpiece is assymetrical, however, and appears to be off-center, which it is functionally not.
