    A GMP of course. Review & more pics to follow but for now here's one sent by the previous owner:

    What a great bookmatch. I am way anal about that.
    I am a true ass set to this board.

          Really nice! Congrats. I guess I should have bought one of their double cuts while they were still in business. My favorite was the NAMM guitar with the iron cross on it.

              You already know what I think. I am eagerly awaiting your review and more pics, especially pics. You do take some of the best guitar pics, Brad.

                        Thanks everyone! Here're my attempts at shooting it though I think Jeremy's shot under the stage lights is probably better:





                        The finish is called "pearl peacock" and allegedly contains blue, purple, gray, and turquoise. Glenn definitely has a great eye for color, I've yet to see any of his work that I don't like.

                        This is the first Elite I've had in my hands and I was definitely surprised that it's as large, thick, and heavy as it is. I expected it to be similar to my long-departed PRS but instead it's thick like a Les Paul and probably weighs close to 10 pounds.

                        The sound is a bit different than my other GMPs. Nowhere near as huge sounding as the chambered Roxies & Pawn Shops but definitely a nice addition to the arsenal. She's in dire need of a fret polish and setup but I'm sure she'll be as smokin' as the rest of my GMPs when I find the time to work her over.

                              Michael - There are a couple on GBase right now and an absolutely killer (IMHO of course) one at Lost Art Vintage back east. And personally I think the ice crystal Pawn Shop on the 'bay is just the shit, I'm *stunned* that no one has jumped on that one yet. Now you know where to find as many as I do. Well, except for the ones I've already bought that aren't here yet.
