I believe those started at $1k when they originally went up for sale, and had the best parts they could put on an AL. Looks like the pickup rings were added, don't remember them on the website photos.

Wow. Congrats! Looks great. Looks like it has been modified a bit. I don't thing those came stock with Seymour Duncan pickups, and as mentioned, the pickup rings. Can't wait for your review

Yeah...as Mickey said, your Avatar is terrifying when viewed on the laptop. I'm feeling unsettled.
In reference to the OP, Happy incoming NGD!

After playing this guitar on all of my amps, (Custom Virbrolux Reverb sounds best) I have to say this is the finest feeling/sounding LP style guitar I have ever played. It is beautiful top to bottom. Very heavy, solid guitar. Notes ring out and resonate forever. I thought I would not like the Seth Lover pickups as I tried them twice before in G&L Bluesboys but they sound great in this guitar. Possibly because the others were covered pickups and these are open zebras. I bought this to flip it resell it, but I will be holding on to this one for now. Great deal on an awesome guitar.
