I'm fine w/o the relic bit, but VWH and maple totally works. Nice year-end review from PGS despite a little more compression on the recording than I had hoped for.

Did you watch this on the PGS site, too? It has much better audio than youtube. Also what is the distorted riff he plays at the very beginning?

Not that it really matters (on a CUSTOM SHOP Fender) but the bridge is back to front.

I like it all though, especially the maple neck... I'm really yearning for a 24" maple neck for my Jag. Why can't it be standard !!!!

that's funny, I was watching that video earlier today and seen it here now

I loved the relic job on that guitar. Even the fretboard looked aged & worn out... wonder what the price tag is on something like that

Done intentionally. On the CS offsets, they flip them around, and grind down the lip on the backside. Thus, the strings have no chance of hitting something on their way from the trem to the saddle. Also, the saddle screws are a bit less likely to interfere with the string path as well. They intonate perfectly fine this way, in fact I believe when I bought my AVRI JM the shop had it set up like this.

huh. this seems like a good idea, any downsides besides not being 'vintage correct'
