Ok, I've put this one together myself and it's an an absolute ball-tearer (Mods, please don't block me).

I picked out a really nice LP-1SS, with just the right amount of spalty goodness, imho.

I've added the awesome Babicz Full Contact Hardware bridge (worth more than the kit)
Grover tuners
Entwistle HVX pickups
Bourns pots
Sprague orange drop caps
Black push back wire
Switchcraft jack

Retail value is well over $600, this kit is under $500... one only.

Here's some pics of the body

tempting Ads but my pile of kits is still about shoulder height as I type in a chair. Whoever buys it will have a wicked axe no doubt. Top quality hardware and as you say the Babicz bridge is worth fair bit of the price.
Whoever snares this kit has to do a detailed diary I think.
Only thing I would change is Tonerider rocksongs but the dark stars still sound good

Holy spalt top Adam! I'm running out of replacements for an autobiography worth of cussing! Love the spalt!

EDIT Just realised its got a spalted racing stripe from the strap button to the pups! Must play faster than other guitars!

**UPDATE**

You can't accuse me of not listening to customers...

I've updated this Forum Special, you can now choose between the Babicz bridge or stay with the stock Chinese bridge. Also, you can choose between the Entwistle HVX and Tonerider Rocksong pickups. Thanks Wokka for that suggestion.

Oh, Thank you. I almost pulled the trigger on this one several times.
But could hear the minister for war & finance in the back of my head.. :)

Hey Tony would you prefer the flame veneer? I do have quite a few of the LPA-1 kits which now have a flame veneer. They are not mahogany though. I can pick out a nice flame top for you and even add some pro rock gear strap locks to cover the $6 price difference. Let me know.
