I just brought this off of e-bay.

They sound like an Australian Agile type company.

I've always thought it would be cool to have this style guitar, especially when playing covers that have a capo rhythm and an open lead.

I'll see what it sounds and plays like, playability is more important than the sound, as lon as the body/neck build quality is OK, I can alway make this a project guitar and fiddle with electrics/pickups/hardware side of things.

It doesn't show what you bought, except that it's a double-neck SG style (which still sounds cool though).

Hmmm, does when I go there, but maybe it's because I won the auction.

It ended up costing $490 Aussie. I think the company must have just got a new shipment/line in. I noticed on their website http://www.customguitarworkshop.com/ that their prices prices went up about 10% yesterday, and that they no longer offer the white one.
