My freind Tim Jagmin built this for me, He has also Built many guitars for famous guitar players, Santana, Jeff Watson {night Ranger} Michael Cauldwell to numerous to list, these pickups are hand wound. All the guitars that rush used up to Hemispheres are Tims, they never take them on the road. You dont have to squint, yes that looks like Jesus to me also!! The Dragon is a neckthrough, the neck is a solid peice of pruple heart, that is the natural color of the wood, it also has Tiger Maple, cocobolla,blackwalnut,and real ebony on the fretboard. And the frets are mother of pearl and another very rare shell Abalone. Alex Lifeson has no1 mine is 66, mine is the last one of this style Tim will ever make. The price is quoted at 10,000 dollars. But Tim built it for me and gave it to me!!! I have many sanding hours in on this. It is priceless to me!!! There is no plastic on this guitar except on the tone switch, everything is meticulously hand made from wood.
