I like it too. I'd add black knobs in addition to the black trem tip.
Bigger in sum than parts.

aah that´s right. so i guess mine´s the... industrio-master...? although it would need to look a bit more like this.

i used the saw, after drilling a few holes big enough to fit the saw blade.
i was going to leave out those routes, since i don´t have a rhythm circuit in this guitar (or any of my guitars), but it looks so empty. and for some reason i like the look of an un-polulated rhythm circuit (probably thanks to SY).

I agree with FireAarro about the matching black headstock .. and maybe a black trem arm tip?

It would also look cool, and a little less goth/more industrial with WRHBs in it.
yeah, i´m actually thinking of putting RI WRHPs in it, and wiring them so that they are parallel instead of series (within each pickup). or maybe have the neck parallel and the bridge series.

I too, for some strange and unknown reason, kind of like the look of an empty rhythm circuit.

Nah, he can't like it. It's got single coils and an irregular tremolo. He can't be non-conformist

Are you serious? He plays a Telecaster with single coils in metal bands.

Are you kidding me?! He plays his Tele for his country stuff and ,as a Manson and Rob Zombie fan myself, I can safely say he mainly used Les Pauls in those bands

I stand corrected :). But still, in that case you can't say he won't like the Gothmaster because it has single coils. And he did occasionally use Telecaster in those groups.

and just so we´re clear about this; one of his signature teles has a bigsby and a jazzmaster bridge, which is not terribly different from a JM trem and a tune-o-matic.

not that john 5 would ever be allowed to touch my precious guitar :P
