Wow, just... WOW.
That's one real good looking southpaw guitar.
And that mirrored logo is just too cool.

I've always loved the shape of jaguars, never loved the short scale or all the fancy switches. Might attempt a build myself one day...

Very nice!

As with all lefty's, I need to save the image and flip them round to make an informed aesthetical judgement.

Very cool. I love Jags.

Is this one short scale too?

And what kind of bridge is on it? Most Jag players replace the bridge by a Mustang bridge or just the saddles to prevent the strings from popping off.

They look like USB ports on the front of that thing!

Not really my cup of tea (surprise surprise!) but the logo is kinda cool, and it looks like a nice bit of wood :)

Nice, I remember seeing that one in "on the bench" too.  

I like the logo, and the Gotoh tuners.  But are they the non-locking variety?

Sexy guitar, almost makes me want to somehow perform surgery on myself, thus becoming southpaw.

looks good - generally i prefer my jags and jazz's with custom colours but the natural finish works better than i would have expected

Yeah, I am the sames as Wez with a preference for custom colours but this guitar does look pretty darn good and I would gladly revise that opinion.
