Custom strings, or just a regular off-the-shelf set?

Looks more like he's getting his pyth-on. Whatever happened to scantily clad women or felted gremlins to generate more interest?

Never seen one with that finish/guard combo before - looks amazing.

Accidentally shot in VGA (the humanity) but still watchable:

IMPORTANT OBSERVATIONS:
  • Love the flatter radius (possibly wider neck also), suits my ape-hands a treat. The 'stock' 10s might be helping this fact, but will find out for sure when I pick-up/find some 11s.
  • Think I actually prefer 'satin' necks to really glossy necks.. I hate to use the word 'fast' when describing a neck, but it IS.
  • Coil-split is usable, but with the usual huge output-drop that has plagued all guitars I've tried with coilsplit, apart from the Squier Double Fat Tele Deluxe weirdly. Splits to the inner coils, thinking about spinning the pickups around to get my Black Francis Contemporary Tele twang on.
  • The 'vintage-looking' tuners look like they should be glow-in-the-dark. Wish they were. May upgrade to something vintage Klusony/Gotohy down the line but no rush.
TLDR: Sonds kool, feels good man.

Video demo at some point, probs post-11s and proper set-up.
Ibanez necks are awesome, I dont think I have ever played a bad Ibanez
Satin necks are my preference. I wish fender did more instead of that toffee apple thick gloop they put on their necks

Good guitar sir!
