Now I just need like, hardware and stuff.

The body's already shipped, he's shooting another coat of clear on the headstock and sending me the neck next week. Since I have absolutely nothing else for it, I'm in no hurry.

Anyone got a spare black Edge?

Just a thought.

There's a 100% chance that I'd want to have that done, but a 0% chance of me spending that much money on this.

Instead, you need to get your hands on a 24.5" scale PRS SE

Too much focus leads to tunnel vision
Too much faith leads to religion
Too much knowledge leads to confusion
Too many guitar lessons lead to jazz-fusion
