an offset waist wasn't what jeff beck was going for when he made the contours on his esquire. but if that was the case, he really did crappy job.

Jeff Beck bought it in that condition, I mean for the body contouring.
This was done by John Mayer the original owner and former guitarist of the Walker Brothers.

oh, sorry i didn't know that. never been much of a jeff beck fan, i've always just assumed he did it himself. anyway, i think the contours look pretty nicely done.
