This guitar build involved a few people. First, thanks to bhuard75 (Bobby) for selling me the ET Guitars custom JEM body (Korina) & neck (maple/Bubinga/maple - Madagascar ebony board). Thanks to Joe Morris for his incredible art on the guitar. I can't believe what he came up with from my near unintelligible instructions. 
Finally, thanks to Jerry Bizon (Luxxtone) for assembling and finishing it off to crazy perfection. In Jerry's words, this is best Ibanez style guitar ever. I'll take his word for it, he's the only person to play it as of now. 
I cannot recommend Joe Morris for his artwork and Jerry Bizon for his luthier skills enough. These two guys are the pinnacle of their respective art.
*Got the guitar on Saturday and it plays for days. Whatever Jerry does to necks is just incredible! It was worth every penny sending it to Jerry for assembly, set-up and his custom brand of magic. I'm already thinking about my next Joe Morris/Jerry Bizon custom JEM. Plugged into my Voodoo HG Jose modded SLP and Friedman 4x12 (Scumback loaded) and wasted most of Sunday.
I'll try and get pics of the back when the sun comes back out around these parts - the back is pretty killer too. The new pics are pretty high res, but I have no idea how to work the camera. My wife is away and her equipment is very confusing to me. I took four photos and the camera didn't work anymore, turns out I filled up the memory card.
Photographer I'm not, I can't even correct the orientation.
