Hi,
Although these are "replicas", they are also custom made guitars, and
therefore you have the ability to change any specifications. EG: future
orders, one guitar will have a Low Pro Floyd Rose, 81/85 EMG's, and a silver
inlay of Randy's signature at the twelth fret. It will also have the
"Ormsby" logo inlaid in abalone on the back of the headstock. Want a maple
fretboard with abalone bowties, ans a white paint job with black dots, NO
PROBLEM!! Of course, things that arent "standard" do cost more, but only if
its going to really upset the production line.
