I custom ordered this about 6 weeks ago and wasn't expecting it for another month, but it's on its way.  More pics when it arrives!  Woot!

It was a unique choice.  I wanted that really wavy look, and it looks like it was worth the $65 upgrade.  Exactly what I was looking for!

Holy Growth-Ring!!! That is some incredible Timber, to be sure...

Oh my god, that neck is sick!    I'm still not sure if I'm looking at the pic or having a seizure.

I'm having a seizure--of delight.

Grosh Blown '59 in the bridge, Fralin Unbucker in the neck.  (Both tapped with push-pull pots.)  TOM bridge (recessed).  Schaller locking tuners.  TUSQ XL nut.  6105 SS frets.  Electrosocket jack.

I will just agree with everyone else, damn that is awesome.

Scalloping really shows off the grain. Its like throwing it on a roller coaster!

Man, you won't even have to play it good to get chicks, just hypnotize 'em with it!

Like I said in another post, Lots of BK builds at the present.

Yeah How ?

Great body and Neck    :icon_thumright:
I love my Recessed TOM and string though.

This'll rock the house down.  :guitarplayer2:

Does that have Natural masked binding on it ?
(Looks like it)

 

[2ManyShoes]

Yeah, it's got vintage tint natural masked binding. 

 

[Tonar8352]

Beauty eh!

 

[dwiller]

Wow!
I always love the look of BK with tobacco burst. 
Need some more close ups of how the masked/tint binding looks and the back of guitar when it arrives.    Its beautiful.  Congrats and keep those pics coming.  Should be a wild beast when its all put together.
