The shape still bugs me (not a fan of the 1958 shape, prefer the late 60s version) but it looks a lot better all blacked out, pickups were swapped to dual $10 EMG Selects that sound surprisingly good, tremolo is blocked, just need a blank truss rod cover.

Excuse me what

1.129 € on Thomann for the EU
27" scale
Hardtail bridge
Seymour Duncan Nazgûl (bridge), Seymour Duncan Sentient (neck)
Stainless steel frets
Locking tuners

If this was shell pink, I'd 100% be in an asylum raving how the universe is a simulation.

Man I don't even care about the lack of Floyd. Stainless steel frets and 27 inch scale ? Might have found a new drop F guitar to replace my GOC and have all pointy 6ers.

These are pretty insane specs for the price point. If this were 2008 I'd be pretty impressed on that alone but considering what guitars normally go for now days this is an absolute steal. I'm tempted to get one myself.

One of my favorite guitars, and packed with mojo. Swapped the pickups a few times, settled on BKP C-pigs, hipshot tuning machines, tusq nut, and have had the guitar plekked at Glasers, and smoothed the gloss of the neck.

This guitar rips. It usually lives in D standard.
