Long story short, my old charvel 3dr i got in ‘88 has alway been my #1. Nothing special, stickers all over it, but sounded great and played like a million bucks. It finally got retired this last fall. Its pretty beat up at this point. So i got a prs custom22. Amazing guitar but not quite my thing. Then i got a custom 24 with a floyd and it was closer but i think im over floyds, but like how low they sit and familiar to my hand. So on the recommendation of a friend i bought a used mayones hydra, and so far its just killer. It kind of checks all my boxes. Cool top, natural back, slim neck, ebony board, my favorite pickups stock. Its kinda crazy how nice these are.

to be fair, i sent an offer to the seller and he gave me a solid deal, and i got it slightly less than the prs custom22. but you aint wrong. they're not cheap...
 
congrats, great builder, beautiful guitars that should outlast us.
 
I love the Hydra, have owned a couple of Mayones as well. They make great guitars. Congratulations!

Love that neck! I had a guitar with a Wenge neck w/ Bloodwood stripes exactly like yours. Damn I miss that thing.

Still loving it. It stays in the band room, so I only get to play it during practice, but it's always nice to be a little surprised by how good it sounds when I do.
