These look nice!!
A bit too much money IMO for a bolt on/poly finish/mim (1800$!!!)
But they look great. Kinda like a cross of a Thinline JM and les or es.
Mahagony body, ebony board, Gibson scale, compound radius.

If these were a grand or 1100,
or were lacquer with a bound neck I’d be preordering one.

Reminds of the ESP X-Tone guitars:
Also, the waist doesn't look to be offset?

Yeah you’re right!
I just assumed it was cut like a jazzmaster from the waist up (including the offset waist)

+1.
Wrong in every dimension somehow.
