Check Carvin.

They make decent custom guitars, but they have a REALLY long list of options.

Hi stratgeek888,

Sounds cool! If no-one else is making it why don't you build it?

Carvin would make a great playing, great looking guitar, but they do not have a model that would encompass all the options you want in one model: direct mount pickups. They have that option available on the Contour 66, but that is a bolt on neck. Ebony fretboard, jumbo frets, graphtech nut, string through - yeah available on all, but no 9.5 compound radius (or any compound radius). No Seymour Duncan pickups - they only do their own, Volume, tone, tone - not likely except bolt and bolt + models.

Sounds cool lol
but it would be tough to find a company making these kinds of guitars, as far as my knowledge goes. Anyways the the people above me seem to have a better answer so.. :D As to making the building the guitar yourself i think it would be great, but exhaust alot of time and money, so there :P
