$217 Shipped.

Anyone know where I can get or who makes Custom Pickguards?

I'd like to put a CLEAR one on this so I can see ALL of the Flame Top.

That is a pretty sweet blueberry burst! I'm actually really curious about the pickguards too, coincidentally enough - I want a different pickguard for my SX Hawk, and it is decidedly nonstandard.

I'm liking the look of the Pegassis

That exact one came today. Waiting for the wife to come home from work for the unboxing along with the Explorer....both in Blueberry finish.

That's a Transparent Blue finish and they do have it in Blueberry as well.

whats the build? Solid woods? I know it says mahogany body, but laminates ? , solid wood semihollowbody ? Is top a ply or solid maple? playability? Youre gonna have some pro/con reviews to satiate our imaginations with, I hope. That floating tailpiece of rosewood they say is warm sounding. I'm interested.
Wow.....

Congrats; you are blessed.
IF I had 3 new guitars delivered in a week, my wife would be helping unbox them (and me) with a meat cleaver.
I haven't told her about the V and the Well-Hung strap on the way yet *gulp*

Well I ALWAYS show her what I'm buying and she sez..."You're a maniac".

To which I reply "No...it's an INVESTMENT! Paypal financing! Pay it off in 6 months with no Interest!".

And she sez "Uh-huh...yeah right.".

Then leaves me alone.
