First, I'd like to say that I really like guitar. The body shape looks great to my eyes. I also like the unbound body. Simpler = more elegant (in many cases). The only major part of the guitar that I would change would be the bridge, and hence fingerboard heights above the body. I realize that the style of bridge used requires this, but I personally would prefer a lower profile with the strings closer to the body. Overall though, the axe is amazing and inspiring!
