Wow, the prototype, 2 and 3 are just awesome! And that neck joint, super sexy and I'll bet it feels just as good as it looks. Just got my better half to do the Euro lotto... if I win I'll take all 3. The pick up idea is great and it would be cool if you chose the colour based on the pick up/ wood figuring.... and whilst sounding cheesy, naming the guitars based on these specs.  8)

Number 6 has to be a Pearly Gates replica, surely?

I'm liking #5 and #8 - to me the quilts appeal more than the flames/stripes.  But #3 has some extremely cool grain patterns too.

There really are massive differences in the figuring and the natural colours of the maple!  :D

Number 6 catches my eye the most I think. I am warming up to quilted maple now but for me it works best in blues and greens where it can show off that watery surface feel. These look like really beautiful instruments Jon.

All gorgeous, particularly number 6! Dare I ask if any of the 4 we've still to see will be p90 models?  :D

3, 5, 8  just incredible pattern. Love vertical patterns. I think 3 is one of the most beautiful ones I ever seen if not the one.

majestical work Jonathan. If Les Paul were alive today he would be playing a Feline... 8)

All rather lovely but if pushed I would choose between no 5 and no 8.

I would guess not, since these 12 guitars are being built to pretty much a uniform specification, apart from pickups and finishes.

I'm sure you could have P-90 sized humbuckers, though - MQs or Stockholms?  :P

6 or 7 for me. I seem to prefer plainer tops (not that these are that plain!)
I think I hate being indecisive.
