TemjinStrife is a jewel in the rough
Enormous neck, pretty wide frets, but it's pretty damn comfortable. Even Drew liked it for the few minutes he played with it, and his main is an Ibby Universe. Mine is pretty lightweight for what you'd expect. Upper fret access is slightly tricky (the heel is comfy, but there's not much space in the cutaway) as it's no RG, but it's not terrible.

Mahogany body, maple cap. The amber sunburst ones are usually pretty stunning in terms of the figure of the top.... the figure is probably a veneer (dunno for certain) but it is over a full-sized carved cap.

Best of all, if you can find one, it's pretty cheap. I got mine as a special Evilbay sale from Daddy's Junky Music for $75, as it looked like someone had just had it refretted (with some issues) and they had stripped it of all hardware. Some good fret-hammer whacks and filing and she plays great... just needs a different bridge pickup than the one I put in already.
