Dunable has some pretty cool offset designs as well.

Absolutely gorgeous workmanship! Love that percussive stutter effect, too...

I'm adding an NR Fireluxe in about 90 days...like this, but with six strings:

I'll probably add a Jag and Reverse Fireluxe to the portfolio before the new year:

Digging this up after discovering Dunable https://dunableguitars.com/. Has anyone played one of these things? They look metal as heck. I think I want one.

I hate music, it's got too many notes.

Paul Reed Smith S2 Vela is another - surprisingly nice guitar too, though some will auto-dislike the brand and headstock.

At the risk of floating slightly off-topic, there's an incredible French guy who lives in London called Philippe Dubreuille who makes some ubelievable stuff. I've linked some of his JM copies but you should go through his entire site - there's some stunning stuff. The Doobie series look like brilliant fun offsets in the vein of the old so-cal strat. And check out the Ricky 330 he made for Gem Archer, just like the one in the "other guitars" section. And the lead time is only 3 weeks! I've left guitars in longer to have the frets dressed!

Even better than everything above, though, is a picture of a modded blue Jag/Jazzy on his facebook page. I'm afraid I can't post it as I can't get facebook at work but it's just glorious. :?
