Exploiter guitar, is that possible?

I've played that red Exploiter!  It had the thickest tone I've ever heard.  From any guitar.  Thicker than an LP by far.

There's been an Exploiter Guitar on ebay for a while now.  The price is probably a little high, but it has remained unsold through several rounds.  Perhaps the seller is ready to accept a more reasonable price?

Gguitars & Ebay Exploiters are the same one.  
 
I think the red one was at the factory showroom when I first visited.
 
I'd really love to see someone order up a Dragon Wing guitar!!!

Me too! We actually pitched that idea to Electronic Arts when they commissioned the Love Giver guitar.

+1 on the Dragon Wing Guitar...
 
Now, one question... Is the body of the exploiter guitar and bass the same one? Or is it a smaller version?
Just curious....

Well mica, maybe you could get your guys to make one for the showroom and that may spur someone on to have one made. You'd be spoilt for choices for what electronics pack to pitch the guitar at though.
 
It sure would be interesting to see.

Ooops! I'm sorry for taking this thread off the original subject, even if it's been a while since it was started. I can't remember if you ever got a quote for this, so here it is for today's prices:
 
7200Little Darling guitar 800Exploiter body shape option 0Vermilion top  600add back laminate in Vermilion 150add master volume 0Orion peghead shape 05-piece Maple / Walnut neck 8750Retail price-no specials considered.
 
For the trem, think around $400 for the unit and about $300 for installation, it depends on the exact model.  
 
Note that Exploiter hardshell cases are $450 instead of the usual $350. For a couple hundred more you could swing a really nice road case, FYI.
