That’s sick! :alright: I’m having a George Lynch or Don Dokken flashback.

So….sickle headstock can be custom ordered? Inquiring minds want to know

I shaped this modified Interceptor headstock out of a Rampage headstock. It's a little shorter than the real old Interceptor, but captures the same vibes.
I made another build with a non-reversed variant of this headstock for a NAMM build and kept the G&L "tooth" on it as well. Pictures should be put up soon, as all the NAMM builds are getting final assembly on Monday.

But yes, to answer your question, we can definitely do this headstock shape on Custom orders by request if anyone is interested. Johnny and Dave McLaren both said they loved that I used it for this build.
