hey monkey, here is a thought for your design... what about doing your leg pattern as an inlay on say a les paul double cutaway shape, or an sg, or any shape for that matter.. you could do a big wood inlay, even stain it red before you put it in.. i know you are trying to come up with the craazy design, but i'm not sure it is first build material.
other than that, i agree with MikeB abo9ut your project... do whatcha want!
(also I agree about BC Rich.. ick!)
