well a customized guitar to your own specs is great..pero of course you can't please all people to say, "wow ,your guitar really looks good and sounds great now" after you customized it..people always has its own unique taste and opinion.. well a great thing is that..be unique on your own ways..
i just know one artist who use this brand of guitar.. the late Cliff Burton of metallica.. he used it on the "kill em all" era i think...
