Oooh nice! What sort of spec etc?
Essentially an RG but with some changes to the shape. Hardware scraps from Musicgift. Will start out with a Lace Deathbucker for the pickup. That neck I bought to the gearfest before last.

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

I have moments of regret over selling this:
