If I remember right that picture is indeed from Utah earlier this year. Anyhow, the guitar is costing me $6500 :o

I know that's a ton of money, everyone I tell that too typically goes "that much, for a guitar?". I've decided at this point that you can't put a price on your dreams. I could buy something cheaper, but in the end it would never be what I really wanted...this.

Does it just come as the body or does Ken do all the pickups, tuners, wiring etc. as well?

Oh, that's a picture of the guitars about 2 weeks prior to being finished. The pickups will be in, along with fiberoptics on the fretboard (for looking above the neck in the dark). My guitar will be identical in every way to James'. It will be here this friday, and pictures will most definately be posted.

That's cool, I was just wondering sicne you quoted $6500 and it just struck me as to whether it included all the hardware. Very cool guitar dude, I do wish I could afford a lovely guitar like that.
