the neck is specially beautiful. Rosewood?
And the body? Looks like a nice piece of Mahogany...

yes, the headstock is quite PRSish, but slightly smaller (and of course symmetric)
the sexiest thing is the neck-body joint, actually a perfectly shaped set-in similar to ibanez SA prestige necks... body is made of a thick (and damn heavy  :)) piece of mahoganey, neck is made of "treated" maple and keyboard is in brazilian rosewood... the 3 woods fit together perfectly, they look very homogeneous...

I like the volute.  I'm a bit of a fan of volutes.

And it would be nice and easy to replace those Sperzels with locking ones, should it take your fancy.

if i close my eyes the impression of having a les paul hung to my shoulders is almost perfect... not just weight-wise, balance, neck and "feel" are very les paul oriented... just a bit thinner. it's also much shorter and compact than my SG61. unplugged  it's less "open" and much tighter. stock pickups are decent, and howl in a very strange way under heavy gain... anyway i'm waiting for a set of holy divers...
 :D

actually i like the tuners, i don't think i'll change them with locking ones, but who knows...

me too! i hope i will never let any of my guitars fall on the ground, but they give me an impression of sturdiness...
