I searched it in the products section. It said Oops, looks like we don't make that!

Oops, I think you do!

Well, the WLH set was a British-only product for a while, so being a signature set of a japanese guitar player, what's so strange of being a japan-only product?

Nothing, and who cares.

Do I really need the Wok'n'Woll Kwazy Nites tone, that was probably a JB in the ugliest guitar on earth?

The bridge is 9.5k. I think it's safe to assume it is not a JB.

He's joking about the fact that artists don't always use their signature gear to record.

I'm kind of curious to see how it compares to something like a Screamin Demon

When AKira did a demo at the booth last NAMM, there was some talk of a Signature pickup coming.

Akira has the best tone on earth, (at least to me) and Im pretty excited for this. Not at 700.00 a set though.... lol..

Maybe NAMM 2017?

I think most of the Signature Killer guitars come with a Jazz/Custom 5 set. So probably what comes in this set.
