I just got an email from Jason Schroeder that has killed my GAS.

I was thinking of a name for the guitar, since it's no longer a darkburst.

Athena's inlay design has given me the perfect name for it.

This is the confirmed inlay I will be using for the guitar. For some reason, when I look at it, the name "Lillith" comes to mind.

So "Lillith" it will be!

Isn't Lillith the name for a succubus? I could be wrong tho.

No. According to Hebrew texts Lillith was Adam's first wife. She was exiled from Eden for being aggressive as she was created to be his equal.

just read that Jason Schroeder belongs to a guild of premier guitar builders called...
The Premier Builders Guild (www.premierbuildersguild.com)

This wonderful looking Schroeder Shorty custom should probably be from his own custom shop, however, other models not custom ordered would be built by Gene Baker (yes that same one!) in PBG's CA factory.. Pretty cool concept..

Congrats Whitestrat! trust me. The day it comes in the mail and you plug it in.

You will not forget the way the first chord feels.

It's not. It's 1 3/4". Exactly what you'd find on a Historic R7/8/9.

Because I like bookmatched. 1 piece works with certain figures only. I wanted a killer bookmatched top.

The inlay work has begun!

Believe it or not, that's ALL wood!
