My favorite local guitar shop posted a pic of this on facebook. I was in the store within an hour and a half, and on my way home shortly thereafter.

Fender foto flame neck. Seymour duncan pickups. Straplocks already installed. $375 with hardshell case.

:omg:

Edit: resized image.

Whoa, nice.

Change out the bridge pick up and throw on a nice black guard and that thing will look and sound amazing! Seriously nice finish. is it a one off ?

I usually don't give a damn about the appearance of guitars, but this one definitely is purdy........ and different!

Nice score indeed.

the bridge pickup is a JB Jr - it actually sounds really good! i have a hot rails for tele in one of my other guitars and thought i might change this one out, but i'm going to leave it in for a while and see what happens.

Pretty wild. I dig it, a lot. Pickguard clashes a bit but in a good way I thinks. :omg:

That actually might work. I don't like the current pickguard though. TBH, never really been a fan of any transparent pickguards :\
