So....How much? 

What to sell you MY guitar ?

Or for the 2010LTD?
That will be about £3000 but will be that extra bit special and strictly limited to 10 pieces in right handed and one in leftie
We are planning a special case for it too - an Ivory coloured Hiscox!
There will be two of each of 5 precious stone colours
2 Ruby Red
2 Sapphire Blue
2 Amethyst Purple
2 Emerald Green (think we've seen that before)
2 Amber
The leftie customer will be allowed to choose!

I've got that burning a hole but I WILL resist!  :lol: Its a good price for it though

Took a couple of group shots of the Lions that are in the workshop at the moment
The Amber ones are mine and the purple one is for one of the guys on the forum - sure we'll have a NGD after he collects it.

Here they are:

What a set of beauties !  Incredible workmanship ( of course ) - and that neck joint on your Lion, is jaw dropping .

Actually now I have the darker amber Lion to use personally and to let people try out as an example of that model - I am putting the other one up for sale (the idea being that I always have to have an example in stock for customers to try out before ordering a custom build)

Expect to see it up on the site and in seconds out

Love the purple one! :D

Do all three have thinner-than-normal bodies?  It's hard to tell from the pics.  I'm wondering just how thin you could go without compromising the neck joint?

The pale amber one is full depth 9.5lbs
The dark amber is full depth and weighs 8lb 9oz
The purple burst is 4-5mm thinner and weighs 8lb 2oz

There is no weakening of the neck joint at this depth
We could go a whole cm thinner than stock and it'd still be strong although the tone may be different due to the % change of mahogany relative to the maple  on the body - one of the reasons that PRS dont sound quite like an LP

That sounds good to me - but I did wonder about the greater % of maple and the effect on tone.

I was reading about a late-'80s model called the Les Paul Custom Lite the other day - it looks nearly as thin as an SG:
