Schecter Blackjack C7, all the way from Connecticut and Digital Jams
MTD Grendel 5, designed by Michael Tobias, built in the Czech republic
Ibanez NW50, Jacaranda (made in Japan in the early 80s)
Lag the Beast Custom. Needs a neck job. It`s a little s-shaped, and I can`t make it play all over the neck.
Ovation CS 247, Korean, but nice workhorse. Nearly bullet-proof, and sounds fair enough.
Front: ESP Eclipse II

Oh, and there`s also one like this, but no picture of it.
There`s a Suhr SSH+ with a nickel cover in the bridge position.

What is the deal with Lag? There was one being spammed here and the specs looked great.

Nice collection!

It`s made in France. Lag now also has Asian production models, but these older Beasts were made in the custom shop in France.

It`s the typical superstrat setup :)

Basswood body (It`s quite thick, a lot thicker and heavier than the Ibanez)
Licenced Floyd (decent, but not more. When I eventually fix this one up, I think I`ll throw in a tremol-no, and used it as a fixed bridge.
Maple neck and fretboard.
DiMarzio ToneZone and PAF pro, and a Seymour Duncan SSL-5 in the middle. Both humbuckers can be split with push-pull on the tone control. The ToneZone actually sounds really cool when split.

edit:
Oh, and the top five frets are partially/gradually scalloped under the ebgd strings

Yea, the Lag is really cool. It sounds much much better than the Ibanez, but unfortunately it needs some work done.

I`ll have to save up some cash and send it to a luthier.

Or just get an all-maple neck from Warmoth, I was very close to ordering this one:
