I must admit I had absolutely zero involvement with the inlay - it was all Vik's idea and design! I just told him that I'd like some sort of 12th fret feature that would be in keeping with the vibe of the guitar and he went ahead and created the masterpiece you see there!

He's one talented fellow, with a great design eye. It would still be a gorgeous guitar without it (obviously) but something about it just really hits the nail on the head for me.

Classy as hell. Now, go forth and start recording that shred album with it!

Something was throwing me off, and i figured out what it is... the F-hole curls the "wrong" way.

Gorgeous guitar. That redwood top is just breathtaking.

Wow, that's a really beautiful guitar man! Can we get a close up look at the inlay?

The f-hole flows so well I didn't even notice.

Sweet guitar though,
