Awesome - I saw that one too! I actually have one of these ones, pictured below. I reckon I've only seen the one you've seen and one other (referring to the TOM type), in the transparent denim-blue finish.
I have a regular AT Pro and 750XL.
I also have the infamous 2007ish? Sam Ash “SL2H” which is really a MIJ 25.5” arch top.

Got any pics of the infamous Sam Ash model? Sounds intriguing!

Hey Don, yep, it's 25.5"/648mm, as is the purple burst one with Schaller that I have.

They only came in two styles, a metallic black with EMG's or a blue maple flametop with Duncan '59 and JB. I have the blue one.
At first I didn't like these and ignored them, but then I found one at a Sam Ash in 2013 and picked it up. It turned into one of my favorites. Great for chunky metal. Real tight for a guitar with JB.Last edited by DonP; 01-06-2023, 04:25 PM.

So this popped up on Ebay Australia today. They say it's a 1999 Grover Jackson Japan "Supreme Series" S-330 Neckthrough Soloist.
Maybe the year is wrong, but maybe this is the guitar Dr Evil said he has?
At first I thought, ooh, we have one of those Japan model soloists in Fender scale. Then I saw the back. Neck through!

This example, however, looks nowhere near as good as the purple one in the 1999 GJ catalogue. I suppose it could always be resprayed.
