That's really nice! I'd think there should be a few of those around stateside.
JETGLO should officially be renamed JETGLO ROCKS! :-)

I would assume any that ship currently would be of this variety. Mike Parks just got one in, but he says no FWI :(

From looking at the Ric site, based on recent shipments, the Japan store is the only one who has received one recently

I've also been on the prowl...I think Mike has had that AFG in for a while now. I have a plain ole FG (w/FWI's) coming this week...looked real nice in the shots and the price was right. :wink: Chris @ POTR has a FG also, but alas no FWI's.

All that AFG needs is a pre-hump pickguard and a 1/2" spacing mod, and it will be perfect.

Sometimes I get beer knees...I drink too much beer and my knees get weak and wobbly. :D
