Just with that other thread about es-137's i found this link (hope it still works) with lovely pics of a lightburst es-137 custom and just had to share it with you guys

I love these guitars :32:

Take note of the heavily finished neck, what do you think that will do to playability?

It will make it a bit sticky and slower to move at times wont it?

I'm not sure about neck playability problems, but for 1300 that guitar was a steal.

that is one nice looking guitar. I wish they made one like that without the varitone knob.

This may sound odd but i really like that neck, the heavey finish on it is just what i like. I buff the neck by hand and it comes out very smooth and very fast. I have done that with my teles and my bluesbird.

Not only is it gorgeous visually - the 6-way rotary switch, in addition to the 3-way, is quite intrigueing.
