Moriah guitars

I've been talking with the owner of moriah guitars lately about building guitars, and its been pretty enlightening, although i realized how much building them costs, wood is not cheap! I have the tools/can borrow them from my dad in-law. I know most of the measurements, the rule of 8 for finding frets, and other neck pocket and nut measurements. but here is a moriah guitar i like alot!

I like it because its kind of like a real neat single cut like PRS but more stylized and has a tele type pickup configuration, i love that pickup in the neck, i think i'll always have a neck pickup like that, it just sounds sooooo good, the back of the neck is really dang beautiful! It has locking sperzel tuners, which is a staple on any guitar i wanna build or own, they are the best tuners i've ever used. The back plate is actually curved with the back contour, that's intense, and it looks like it has daddario strings in there. I use to use those, and my brother in-law uses them religiously on acoustic and electric, i use DR string 10-50 tite-fit, they are just so bright, i love them.

The only thing i would change is make it in the spirit of evh take the tone knob off completely, ive never had a use for the tone knob, and change the three way toggle to a three way blade type like a tele and put a seymour duncan lil 59, or some other stacked pickup in the bridge, or just a humbucker maybe an emg 81, or sd 59

edit** just realized the pickups arent mounted with screws, what the crap this guitar is amazing!!!
