Almost the coolest thing about that is the giant Seymour Duncan pickup, although it's not pictured.

The PUPS are now in the Museum of Music Making in the NAMM building in Carlsbad, CA. I saw them on a tour last February. Anyone passing thru the area should plan on visiting NAMM headquarters and the museum..great place... I was invited into the conference room to identify the wood in the conference table. It was figured bigleaf maple veneer and the apparently they thought it was solid wood until I pointed out the repetitive patterns in the matched veneer. Beautiful view of the Pacific from that room....

"Big" is a great tv show. I liked the one about the popcorn machine.
