Beautiful guitar. What type bridge is that, or is it custom made?

The bridge is custom made from angle aluminum and brass rod.
I just realized the soap bar dimarzio pickup has a shorted coil. One coil reads 8K and the other reads 5K. Quite sure they both should read 8K.
That may account for some objectionable tone I'm hearing.
Gonna change it before I give the tone a final verdict.

Jim,,,,I LOVE that body design,,,,I may have to try something similar as a Keyless,,,(I'm "keyless" to the core,,,,LOL). What is your scale length? Is the string spacing tapered to the nut?

Sonny, the scale length is 22.5". The string spacing is not tapered. I think it's easier to do slants if the strings stay parallel.
