Hot. Kind of reminds me of the Fender Custom shop La Cabronita models, but nicer.

I like it. A lot. Very subdued but still a bit elegant looking. I also like the rosewood neck. Do you happen to know if it is set neck or not?
 
oh... oh! I gotta look away... eyes closed for a while... okay? Okay. Whew... that was close, so early in the morning.
I was taking a chance on my visual perspective losing balance between left and right handed, and right-handed up-side down.
That's how much these unsubtle changes to Telecaster design have interfered with my semi-latent senses.
Just as my right eyeball is being yanked off to the right, assimilating the long, stretched out version of a Telecaster horn,
my left eyeball is yanked down to the left, assimilating the Stratocaster-style body contour that adds a new perspective.
This almost makes the neck look like it's out of alignment, in this leaning back perspective shot.

The construction and hardware layout make this an S.G. upgrade with an Alembic or B.C. Rich influence.
It wouldn't kill these guys to leave more wood on the headstock, like Fender. Call it a styling cue.
And I don't think I've even ever once wanted to plug in a guitar like this.

I shouldn't have looked at the pickups.
The pickups screws look bigger than the dots down the neck.
And the dots down the neck aren't down the middle, disappearing down the side.
This furthers my blurred perspectives.
That front pickup screw on the neck pickup for the high E string might be aligned with F#.
