The elder body Had to be changed too far from the sw look to accommodate the deeper pups etc ..So I used an old carved body I got off Low Budget Luthier a while ago on a trade , and put it to use . and added the red painted accents .As you can see , THIS BODY was perfect for this guitar .I used the guts , parts , and neck off a swamp witch Familiar 6 string model and converted it to 3The custom mirror “Spectrum5.0” name badge is from a guy that makes wedding cake toppers ;-)The 6 3 square pole pups ,, used to be impossible to get .. but a new supplier is re-poping them now .The punched out star pennies I got on ebay . they have crosses , angels etc .. too.This thing is awesome .. I just love it and all the tone choices it supplies .Obviously this one will be one of a kind .. and I will probably keep it .Will I sell these, or something similar ?If anything .. I may start selling a similar guitar without the carved body . depending on interest ,, (let me know if interested ) but it will cost about $ 400 + .We shall see . anyway hope ya like this one .

Quite cool indeed! Reminds me of an extremely souped-up, tricked-out 3 string version of an old Teisco Del Rey I have... which I love a lot :) Very sweet! BUT you need more pickups... HA! -Glenn
