It's a rescue Thorn.....the previous 2 or 3 owners abused the shit outta it. Ron was nice enough to let me send it back to him and he gave it all the care an abused Limited Edtion guitar should have. Mike Hansen the owner of " THE BEST BRIDGE IN THE WORLD" 2Tek spent a few hours @ his shop today whacking a hole in the guitar and installing the bridge. I'm glad I wasn't there.....one slip and that hand stained 3D Masterpiece maple top woulda been toast. I can't wait to play it!!!!

Looks great, always wanted to try a guitar with one of those 2-Tek bridges...never seen one out in the wild though, do you have other axes with it on?
 
Sorry, would have stuck with the Thorn hardtail lol

I have played a TON of them and have a PartsCaster with one installed that is the only Strat I own. Ron Thorn is now offering them as an option on his line of guitars!

I got the chance to play Vince Gills Vinatge Strat that has been 2Tek'd and that guitar is "The Grail!!!"

You know I haven't seen it since Ron sent it back. I didn't ask Ron to do anything about the bumps and bruises, but it just didn't feel or sound as good as the Red one I owned. Knowing Ron, I'm sure he went WAY above and beyond as that's just Ron. When I did talk with him about the guitar he told my that the previous owner had re-installed Thorn pickups and seriously lacked soldering and wiring skills.The other stuff I could careless about. ;)
