I love one-off guitars.
The GOAT, Neal Moser custom built this S-type for me around '97-'98. The neck and body aren't from 3rd party parts suppliers. The woods were hand picked, glued, cut and shaped by with no CNC. I spent some time learning from him back in those days and at that time in his life, he wasn't interested at all in building clones of conventional designs. He made a special case for my brother and I and we had 2 (differently spec'd) S-types made and they came out awesome.

Below is a Ronin Mirari that used to be owned by Lyle Workman. The body is from 1000+ year old, reclaimed Redwood. I believe all Ronins are kind of custom and unique from one another, but this one is the only hardtail one they built afaik.

Below is a Hania PRS-ish guitar that was made by a UK builder named Martin Harrison. There's like no info on this builder online, but sometime in the early 2000s, he built this for a friend of his and then I bought it from him when it randomly came up for sale locally.

Another legend, Matty Baratto made this "Custom Standard" LP type with Honduran mahogany body (no maple cap) and Brazilian Rosewood board. It currently has Arcane pickups in it and sounds insane.

Wow! What a stunning collection!! The Neal Moser Strat is got me droolin' man!! Beautiful!
Also, I'm a big Lyle Workman fan! One of my favorite guitar players!! Thanks for sharing these!!👍🏻
 
Kramer Ferrington? I've only seen 1 other explorer shaped Ferrington decades ago. I had the opportunity to buy it,,,got cold feet. 🙄

No offense, I tried one when they came out. Thought they sounded terrible even though they played fairly well.... rare bird indeed!

I was gifted a Kramer Ferrington in the late 80's.

The neck wasn't tight to the body and the plastic nut and bridge didn't do it any favors. Once I corrected those issues, it was actually decent to play.
