Plan B Pinkie
I originally ordered the Skyler and received an email saying my order had been placed but it turned out that it was unavailable. Artist offered a refund but I eventually opted for this guitar as a plan B. I am very happy with the sound and build quality and it has great pick-ups and finishing . A minor complaint would be that the side fret markers were not glow-in-the-dark as described. Overall pretty pleased with it though.

Product Description
Artist AT73 Pink Paisley Burst Electric Guitar w/ Hand Made Pickups
The latest in our much-lauded range of TC-style guitars, the Artist AT73 is a sleek and modern take on the classic paisley designs of old, packed with a host of great features to bring you an instrument that straddles the line between innately familiar and excitingly new. With a matching headstock, and a classic-looking roasted maple neck finished with a comfortable satin feel, the high-grade locking tuners and rosewood fretboard (at a lightning-quick 14-inch radius), make for a guitar that is smooth and easy to play.
Having tested untold amounts of pickup options, we settled on a set of high-end, hand-made single coils wound by the Laohao workshop, a small team producing low-quantity batches of custom pickups to a frankly unbelievable standard. Paired with 250k pots, the AT73 packs a massive punch, every bit as twangy and biting as you could expect from a TC-style guitar. Every detail has been pored over with this one - a bone nut, copper shielding, a wheeled string tree, locking strap buttons, and glow-in-the-dark side fret markers are among a host of modern features that will make this your new number one.
There may be slight variations between the paisley finishes on each AS72. This is due to the paisley finish being applied by hand.
