Wow, that is something else!

Yeah,it ain't pretty,but that axe used to get so much work into my shop.
Dudes would come up to me after a show and say "Man,that is the ugliest guitar I've ever seen!!" And we'd start talking and I'd give them a business card and say "Come to the shop and see the pretty guitars,and if you can't find what you want,we'll build it for you!"
Worked out well.
The pickup is something I've owned for at least 25 years. Sounds absolutely killer! A bloke brought it into a shop I used to work at. Someone had brought it for him and there was no way he would put a pink pickup in one of his guitars. Custom colour SD's were really rare back then (in Australia) and the moment I saw it,i had to own it.

Cheers,PJ

Ty! I actually finished paying it off just yesterday, so i officially own it

It came stock with v7/v8 pickups. Really the worst pickups i've ever used (even my my $80 'cort' travel guitar). I really have a feeling that the guitar was produced with the idea that people will want to choose their own after market pickups and they just threw those in to reduce unnecessary expense. Hopefully, the pup upgrade will improve the situation. It should be done in september. Keep running into issues causing it to get delayed.
