    I've said it before in this thread, and I will say it again: That peghead design is the coolest I've seen!
    Very nice.
    Ed, check out this pic of the headstock!

    Well Steve sent me these the other day. Technically it is all finished up but the bridge pickup that Kent Armstrong made for it is not working properly so we trying to work that out. Probably going to take the KA pickups out and replace them with gold mini Seymour Duncan pickups.

    You can see in the picture of the back it's got a nice speed neck on it. This should help shift positions a little, as there will be a bit of shifting with the longer scale and tuned in 5th.

    Here's hoping you and Steve get the PU situation squared-away to your complete satisfaction.
