yea...i dig these too. i'm going to go after the white/maple neck model. i actually would like to have one of the older wooden models from about 10 years ago. those had 2 P-90's, a mahogany body and had the thickness of telecaster. the new wooden models are the same as the lucite as far as thickness and pickups. IIRC, the white finish is constructed of ash, while the red and black models are constructed of alder.

The neck's look a little wide on those? to be honest I'm a bit too superficial in my guitar choice-making to be interested in these. They remind e of my Hi-Flyer though.

I'm used to a really wide neck,because compared to most guitars my Jackson is reaaaally wide feeling.Cool thing about dan armstrongs is you can switch pickups but plugging them in and out

oh kool...the red one is mahogany. three wood choices is even better. i like the size of the necks, but i can get used to anything as long as it's not too small. i've always thought these guitars sit very "stubby" on your body. if i strap one on and just have my left hand rise straight up to the neck and grab a chord, my hand's are about to frets closer to the nut. i think it's just because the top cutaway is longer than most guitar, causing it to sit differently. of coarse...i still want one. lol ....i can get used to any guitool.
