Very cool. Fun looking guitar, but I too hate headstock divers!

I thought maybe the 22k gold skull body inlays were meant to counterbalance the neck dive, but they don’t look big enough to pull that off.
27 frets! Plus room for 3-4 more. Not sure what I think of that selector switch location: it’s either really convenient or really in the way.
And it looks more like a tulip or a space alien than a pretzel to me.
