I like the headstock. Don't know why most people don't.

most aren't cool and metal enough to dig the headstock

I've always loved it

These new transparent finishes look really good! I'm not a big fan of their sponge finishes.

I've owned both Jacksons and Caparisons, and they both have their good points. They are both solidly built guitars using good hardware. Caparison pickups are for the most part pretty good as well, plus the neck carves I've played were extremely comfortable. The necks are generally a little thicker than Jackson necks too.

BTW, those flame finishes are nice. Is there a slight arch to the first one too? It almost looks it from some of the reflections and from the carve lines on the side.

the body shapes on these TAT's look a little different than past TAT's, like more offset or something?

Yeah, the TAT Special is a totally new body shape. It's kind of a mix between the TAT and Horus.

What does the second knob control? Noticed that it is using a different knob than the volume, so figured I'd ask.

I have to admit, that is a shitload better than the spongy finishes. I actually like those, especially the black one.
