Doesn't look like a Feline to me, the inlay isn't cats eyes and the headstock isn't marked either.

well i like the look of spalt... but on that guitar it completely destroys the strong lines created by the neck through laminates.

the finish on the mahogany looks really rough in some of the shots near the bottom as well, and on the back of the headstock.  It says its an oil finish which aint really the best choice for spalt, especially since that spalt is quite far gone

do we need to mention the hole for the trem!!!

on the plus side i do like the neck laminations and the blend into the body

the work i have seen of johnathans has been so much better than that

I wonder if that's a late addition?  It looks a lot cruder than the rest of the guitar.
