That's really cool, I like it :) The shimmery blue is really pretty, and I like the puzzle piece strap. What gave you the idea?

That thing looks amazing. I'd love to have that strap. I have some questions:

- Did you take a Steve Vai Ibanez and mod it?
- The middle pickup looks unique. Is it some sort of piezo?
- Next to the pickup selector switch seems to be another toggle switch. Coil tap?

Wish I could hear it!

The switch is an LED on off switch. The middle pickup is a single coil size humbucker. It was a Chinese knock off guitar of an Ibanez JEM that I stripped down and had rebuilt. The body is plexiglass and I couldnt find any blue clear bodys in this shape other than the chinese copy. It turned out great! Spent $1,500 in mods.

I think that's a positive way to spread awareness. I think every guitarist on the spectrum should have one, but only if they want to. 8)
