    Hey Joe - it has a flamed maple centre section, with I think either mahogany or Korina wings. It's 24 3/4" scale, rev sharkfins, the flame top is about 1/2" thick, there's a push pull on the volume for switching, ebony buttons on the tuners, custom Duncan and DiMarzio with gold polepieces and it's been signed on the rear of the head by Delores Rhoads (shame my name's not Michael though!) That's about all the specs I can come up with right now
    I need to get a old RR type bridge from Dave, and have wondered about removing the V-plate and going for ferrules, but I doubt I'll ever get round to it! The pics suck, but here they are:

      The trans black guitar in the middle was Danny's, but the Turtles is a replica and the rest are custom orders...

      That's an older one that's been modded with a Floyd. It has a single hum route under the guard. I don't know much about it, other than that. I think it's an 'original' guitar though, rather than a mutt....

          Awesome. Is that a Feiten tuning system or some kind of other compensated nut on there?

              Funny, my room just went thru a revamp. Big office desk in here now, yet more space for guitars. And today is payday.... now if I could just up my USA Jackson count to 3...

                  Ah well, why didn't you say? I'd be only too pleased to look after the guitars left here, make sure they get the love and attention they deserve. I'd even wipe my "special polish" off afterwards.

                  Trust me, you wouldn't want mine after the thrashing I've given it.
                  So I woke up,rolled over and who was lying next to me? Only Bonnie Langford!

                              I may be in the minority, but I dislike v-plates. I was wondering what you'd have planned to do to disguise the three screw holes where the v-plate is attached?
