NGD! Bernie Rico Jr. Jekyll 727 "slimline"

[FLGearnut]

It was never Zimbloth's intention to have these guitars be as slim as Jousa's 727S, these were mainly supposed to be a regular jekyll that lost a couple of vanity pounds in the body...not the full blown "holy shit" atkins diet

Ok so the really thin one is just called a Jekyll "S" and this one is the Slim Line? Wasnt there something like a Slant out there too? FUUUUUUUCK I need to get my nomenclature right!

Confusing, but it sounds like the neck was the main feature to be "Slim" on these. By looking at the 1st pic in the 2nd batch of photos. It does look closer to a KXK neck.

KXK neck for reference-

Regarding the discussion about the Slimlines:

The Slimline idea was something I came up with when talking to Bernie about doing a run about a year ago. The idea was for it to be the same as a Jekyll, but just thinner. The Saber body thing was hatched later by one of my customers who is a Saber fan and wanted something similar. So guitars in these threads are 'Slimlines'. The stuff like the Ibanez Saber is something else.
