    As far as electronics go, the models will have 2 custom DiMarzio humbuckers with 500k volume and tone pots, and a .022 uF tone capacitor. You will notice these are chrome covered pickups with our new Music Man rings. I think you will find these rings to be not only aesthetically pleasing, but VERY functional as well. To control these pickups, we have a 3 way toggle switch that allows you to select the bridge, neck+bridge, or neck pickup(s).

    Dunno about aesthetically pleasing... I demand symmetry in my pickup mounting :v:

    Hmmm, I don't know. I do like the Ernie Ball heads though

    The pickup rings look interesting, I wonder what's the idea behind them?

    the two screws on the high side are for tilting the pickup in order to keep the face of it parallel to the strings. they're actually on quite a few guitars i've seen!

    or are you on about something else?:confused:

    Ah! Makes an excellent amount of sense! Pretty sure we're both talking about the same thing here.

    have to say Karl that's definately one of the tastiest guitars you've rooted out for our humble opinions to be cast upon!

    top notch!

    Of course it is. I have impecable taste. Nice quilt on it, isn't there? Is that a one-piece, or just the nicest bookmatching I've ever seen?

    it's a damn good bookmatch alright!
    i love the way that at the end of the vaneer there's a subtle black white black binding that doesn't interfeer with the playing surface ay all!

    it's the little things!:D

    Pah, that humbucker tilt is nothing that Fender haven't been doing for many, many years (and in a more aesthetically pleasing way too :p )
