    Some guitars have angled PUPs. Must be someone's attempt to place the PUP in what they think is the sweet spot for each string, or maybe I'm imagining stuff - again.

    I'm okay with angled pups...ARF ARF!!

    But I think if they're going to have them, the bottom end of the fretboard should angle with it, so there's no gap between the straight-across line of the board and the pup edge.

    That's my angle on the whole thang.

    I 100% agree with you Elmeaux. The fretboard should have been angled, too. That said, I do love the Phantom...and the Hudson. But, I think I'm going with the Phantom this time around.

    Nice thing about the guru is the built-in can opener (lower horn) AND bottle opener (headstock.)

    Voting for the Curbow again, though I guess it's getting tinned this time. Ha.

    What Elmeaux suggests is that the bottom end of the fretboard be twisted to line up with the pups. I think that a better solution would be to go with radiused pups and bridge. That bridge looks rather straight to me and the fretboard looks radiused.

    P.S. To me, four votes for the Hudson constitutes a fair game. No mercy rule here.
