A nice Hamer shape body.
The Hipshot would've been an ideal choice of tailpiece.
You'd have to have a "polishing roadie" in order to own it, though

"A nice Hamer shape body."

Actually Gibson EB-0/Les Paul Jr. Hamer "borrowed" the design.

That is a great point Greg. Why build from scratch and elect to use such a flawed piece of hardware? It does fit the metallic theme of the instrument though.

The bridge is the first thing that caught my eye on this. Then I looked closer to find the entire Ric electronics.
