At first glance I thought the thread title said "Firestarter"...that's what it SHOULD have read...
 
I'm not crazy about the color scheme, but it's basically just a non-reverse Firebird. Put mini-hums in it and a different color pickguard and body color, and I'd be interested.
 
Cool concept. Hate the vibrato, don't love the shape, but it's something different that isn't immediately unappealing.
 
I would want to know what those pickups sound like. It might be a very fun guitar. But if those pickups are too hot, it might not be for me.
 
Again you find my least favorite example of one of my favorite builders

I REALLY like them and Frank is an incredibly great guy. Arcturus is heavily inspired by the Firestars.

That pink one with the tort pickguard is "way more awesosmer" that the one in the OP.
 
I dig it right up to the headstock. That headstock feels to vintagey for the slick late 1990s techno look of the rest of the guitar.

:grin:

Sometimes I pick things that I dig or that I think the forum will dig and sometimes I pick things that gross me out :embarrassed:

I almost posted this but there were no specs or full pics:

Doug, I'm sure they're nice, but I rather have a few of your's that I've seen.
