Plenty of Khaler lovers in the house. Actually I myself, when the right deal comes along, am looking to get a M6 w/ Khaler.

How about this, lets see how creative you guys are.

Come up with a lineup of 8 guitars you would produce if your were in charge of the NAMM lineup.

Ok since I asked the question its only fair I should put my ideas out first right?

On the Charvel Side
Charvel San Dimas Pointy Exotic-Flame Koa 1/8" flat top, black binding, inlays, hardware and logo. Walnut Body, Cocobolo Neck and Bocote Fingerboard. Tunomatic w/Stop tail H/S config with direct mount pickups. Original San Dimas Neck Profile.
Charvel San Dimas Strathead Retro #1-1 Piece Birdseye Maple body, Birdseye Maple neck. Honey Sunburst, Gold Hardware, Gold early San Dimas logo. Flat top with Creme binding. Early San Dimas Neck Profile. Vintage trem, 1 Hum, 1 volume.
Charvel San Dimas Strathead Retro #2-Maple Neck and Body. Dan Lawrence painted retro Spiderweb graphic, black on purple finish. Black early San Dimas logo. Early San Dimas neck profile. Vintage Trem, 1 Hum, 1 volume.

Jackson Guitars
Bolt on Spalt Maple Roundhorn Rhoads-Roundhorn Rhoads body, 1/8" Spalt flat top, Black Korina neck and body. Birdseye Maple Fingerboard. Ebony Sharkies. Black logo, hardware, binding. 1 Humbucker, Afterburner, coil tap. String Thru. Spalt Peghead. Jackson San Dimas Neck Profile. Strathead.

7 String Archtop Warrior-Archtop Warrior body, Neck thru Mahogany body and neck. Bloodwood Fingerboard, 1/8" Bloodwood top. Black with transparent natural Rising Sun Graphic. Black painted headstock and neck. Natural Binding, Black binding on neck, Bloodwood headstock binding. Ebony/Abalone Sharkeye Inlay, Abalone logo. H/H config, string thru, abalone knobs. SLS headstock.

Death Kelly-Black With Gold Leaf bevels. Mahogany neck and Body. Neck Thru. Gold Hardware, OFR, HSS. Gold Leaf Logo, Flamed Maple fingerboard with Ebony Sharkies. Gold V Plate. Rev. Headstock.

Mike Learn Demon ()-Demon Body, Mahogany neck and body neck thru with tone chambers. Mike Lean full body graphic (hell motif) Flaming Skull inlays. HH, OFR. Black Hardware.

Mike Learn Archtop Roswell Star-Roswell Star body, Archtop. Lacewood Neck and Body. Meteor inlays, Mike Learn full body graphic (space motif). H/S String Thru. Gold hardware.

I think that lineup would really turn some heads.

Oh and I love the webcam idea of Xeno's [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Even if they weren't on all the time but just occasionally so customers can see some of the process of how their guitar is built. Plus it might minimize the chance of a mistake being made like Jack's Demon had the incorrect cut on the bevel.

Re: Let\'s pretend -You\'re in charge of the custom

I would rip off the Ibanez Jem body and make one Bolt on and one Neck through.

Maple Top, Mohagony Body.

Optional Maple Fretboard or Ebony or Pau Ferro.

Regular, Medium Jumbo or Jumbo fret options.

Any neck option you would like in terms of dimensions including a Wizard type neck for all of the small hands guys (you know what they say about small hands...hehehehehehehe! - just kidding!)

24 frets or Optional 27 fret neck.

Pickups: Aero Instruments - Level 3 Bridge, Level 2 Neck.
Optional Single coil available.

Optional Coil Splitter and/or Sustainer available.

Floyd Rose - Optional Recessed and Non-Recessed.
