It's not about the gear! It's about you, your hands, your imagination, your feelings.

Love it!  What's up with those strange saddles though?

Must be a recent acquisition. It will go well next to the $12k 3TS 61 JM.  ::)

Errr... I mean $15k  ;D

Being an avid  VI freak, I'd much rather have the $30,000... in this case.
It's only a tool.

A fraction of that cost would get me some custom built goodness
and I would not have to constantly worry about how expensive it is.

Someone will buy it, never play it, seal it up never to see the light of day.
Shame... ...

Beautiful but horrendously over priced..I can get a worn fiesta red VI today for $10K basically a third of that price. its a $15K guitar absolute maximum. Yeh and the saddles are all wrong..

It's Australia, so it's overpriced, but will still probably sell somehow.

Funnily enough, Jacksons is next to a brothel. I have wondered if there is some further connection there....
