This guy does FANTASTIC work. I have one of his pins and the detail is unbelievable. First time I've seen an Electric XII in his lineup:
This one is on eBay right now if anybody wants a better pic:

Looks photoshop'd. Perhaps it's just a prototype at the moment?

I'd guess it looks that way because of the flattening of the knobs, bridge etc. Looks "production" to me.

They are enamel on metal pins - honestly, they are very impressive in person. A tad pricey, but really well done. He'll do custom work of anything you want. A personal favorite axe, with your own stickers, wear, etc., a famous player axe, you name it. They custom jobs are apparently a bit more expensive. The artist is in the UK somewhere. I haven't seen any JMs yet, but he had a Jag a while ago, if I recall.

I have one of these-the guy's in the UK-shipped here to the US with no problem. The one I got is his replica of the first Hamer guitar-Rick Nielsen's #0000 Explorer/Standard. VERY well done.
