So cool Bob!

So is it any different than a "regular" 60C besides cosmetics? Any special technical features?

Your website says that it has a set neck, but the pics show a bolt-on.

It is actually a bolt neck as you can see in the photo's on the website. The set neck bullet was a typo brought to my attention today, which I will get corrected soon. So, it is not a 60 Custom, no body binding, bolt neck clear finish on the maple neck.

Brian really wanted it just like it is. I think it has the right amount of simplicity and the right amount of technology flash, so I think Brian made a good call.

I never realized how much is really going on on the circuit board pick guard.

Check out the MOAM? facebook quote, these guys are quite the entertainers:

It’s official! The MOAM? Star Crunch signature model guitar is here! Yes - Star Crunch’s guitar has now been officially declassified, decontaminated, deconstructed and then painstakingly reconstructed by scientists located at the Hallmark Guitar Institute. Bob Shade, Head of Research and Development at the Institute, has successfully replicated the Astro-Machine right down to the molecular level. Now any mere mortal can possess the sounds of MOAM?. Surf on over to Hallmark Guitar's site to see the guitar and then maybe you’ll decide you need to have your own piece of space history! Thank you Hallmark Guitars, we will now redirect our subliminal psycho/mind control ray-beam elsewhere. Your headaches should subside soon. http://www.hallmarkguitars.com/guitars/moam.shtml

My headaches have not subsided yet. Must.........try.......to...........produce...........normal...........guitars.............

Great to hear, Bob! I like that little metal badge (Is that the right word?) on the headstock, I haven't seen a lot of that lately but it may be good to stick on guitars. I'm reminded of the Foxfire books, Maybe I should read them for some inspiration.

It is actually a coin we had made for the headstock and it is mounted with small tacks.

Huh. It reminds me of coins/tokens from bowling alleys or arcades. Thanks.
