This has got to be the best damn looking guitar I've ever seen. Just wish I had 900 bucks to spend...

What do you guys think?

Yeah that's pretty cool, has a bolt on neck though

[disturbed_pyro]

that's something I don't get, what's the difference between a bolt-on and a neck-through?

[ESP_Viper]

Bolt on is where the neck and body are seperate. The neck is attached via screws in the back. It can be easily replaced, repaired, etc. Set neck is similar to bolt on, except it is glued onto the body. This creates a better joint between the neck and body which in turn has better sustain. Then there is neck through. Which is where the neck runs through the body. The body is 3 pieces. It's the two "body" pieces glued to the neck's wood. The pickups and bridge are mounted into the same wood of the neck. This type is the best for sustain. But, neck through is the most expensive, and if it breaks, well your guitar is shot. If a bolt-on or set neck break, there is more hope of repair. Bolt on is the cheapest to make and assemble. Set is as easy to make, a little harder to assemble. Neck through is the most difficult of all.
