Anyone see this finish on a guitar yet? The Silver Swirl, very cool lookin. Something looks wrong about that Rhoads though. Can't put my finger on it, maybe it's just the angle of it. But still, very cool. Dunno how to post the pic, so I'll put the link.

What throws it off a little is the pickguard.

The Rhoads don't have enough of the body showing to look good with a swirl finish. They need a cool graphic or just a solid color. JMHO.

Looks right to me. The pickguard is standard and the fret count is 22, what gives?

That's what an eerie dess finish looks like without the trans color coats.

It's not 24 frets... it's 22. 24 RR "fretters" come from Japan. USA made are 22 frets. I'm sure someone out there has ordered a 24 fret USA RR1
