What I really love about Jim's guitars is their versatility. They sound incredible clean and dirty, have a fast enough neck for shred but still enough girth to wrench on the neck when you want, the 16" radius on the board is perfect for two-handed tapping, ridiculous sustain and the ability to use multiple tunings because of the extended scale length (27").

Another thing I've noticed, and probably owe big props to Pete Biltof at Vintage Vibe, is the clean tones sound great in all positions, bridge, middle and neck, which is something very rare for me... the bridge on it's own is almost always too harsh for me, but both sets of Pete's pickups sounded great on my LN6.

I wasn't thinking too much about the guitar and holding it all in until I got the binding pictures the other day and Jim locked me down for a finish on the body... I'm starting to get antsy!
