None My Custom Wraith Guitar.

Here it is!!

More than two years in the making (a lot of delays stood in the way) but it's finally here. My custom guitar built by Neal Moser. He used to work for B.C. Rich, but eventually branched out on his own.

This bad-boy is equipped with two Lace 'Drop & Gain' pick-ups, making it ideal for drop-tuning, but obviously it sounds great at standard as well. Perfect for doom metal and heavy sounds in general...

My camera is complete crap, so I only took two pictures myself (the last two), but I am including a link to Neal's web-gallery, where he displays his handy work after finishing each guitar. His shots are MUCH better and much more detailed than my own. Also, the first five pictures of it are by Neal as well, but they were taken right when the guitar was just finished and were not professional enough to be in his gallery.

If you noticed that the volume and tone knobs are different in my pictures and his, it's because they were changed at the last moments.

Here are his gallery shots:

And this is a demonstration of the Lace pick-ups by Wino from Saint Vitus, and plenty of other projects, haha:

I remember you talking about waiting for it, and now you finally have it. It's an goddamn beauty for sure man.. Those pick ups are active?

Thanks dude! And nope, I think all Lace pickups are passive.

haven't seen this kind of headstock on a Moser before... i love the reversed headstock on this model, but this looks cool as hell too...

Yeah I know, not too many people use this headstock, but it was my personal favorite. Almost EVERYBODY uses this one:

To be honest, that looks incredibly over-the-top for me, and cheesy. Most Moser Custom Shop designs (both for guitars and headstocks) feel this way for me, but the Wraith is just fucking awesome! I also love the Moser V, but most just don't do it for me. The Bastard V is ok too.

yeah, that headstock is too much for me too... i like it more conventional.... here's a nice example of that reversed headstock http://nealmoser.com/store/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=6246...... Anyway, it's a very nice looking guitar... reminds me of the BC Rich Virgin 7 string i once had....
