Darren (Decibel Guitars) linked to this in a thread on MG and as soon as I saw it I GAS levels raised to breaking point. Also as a nice bonus and also an annoyance I paid extra for Saturday delivery but surprise surprise Parcelforce deemed it fit not to turn up at all which is the annoyance. But as a result GAK refunded my postage which is to be expected and offered me a £25 discount on my next order so as a result of Parcelforces fuckwittery I am now technically £50 up. A nice touch that I noticed whilst taking the photos is the fact that the headstock logo is a maple inlay. Also the abalone doesn't look as garish when it isn't being exposed to a flash! It plays pretty much exactly the same as my other RG premium just without the whammy shenanigans. It's fairly light and very resonant. My only issue so far is the bridge pickup is a bit excessive in the low end, shame really as otherwise the pickup is fairly nice sonically.

Just a quick update on this. Satin finishes SUCK! got a nice shiny spot just where my pinky rests.
The custom Bulldog sounds brutal in it.

That's a nice bit of wood you've got there.
Mind you, I'd stick a Tele pickup in it and hardtail it. I'm weird like that.

That's a hardtail? What's all that bridge gubbins for?
Seriously though, Tele pickup. That's what it needs.

Also mass. Lots of mass.
If you can't get a Hannes, get some massive chunk of steel bolted to the guitar.
