Wow! That's one of the most beautiful guitars I've ever seen.
In regard to Shag: I didn't know anything about Shag doing work for Fender until two days ago when I was at a music store in Concord, NH and my girlfriend saw the Shag Fender Tiki tee-shirt and bought it for me. Oddly and coincidentally enough, I was there buying "tiki-convert" his Christmas present (Wedding bands have their Christmas parties late)
I'm going to call "tiki-convert" and tell him to check out that guitar if it's there. I'm probably going to get a nice picture of it and hang it somewhere in my studio. Thanks for showing us that.

He also did a free pull-out poster in last year's Frontline (Fender magazine-sized catalog), a scan of which I psoted elsewhere) and did two Telecasters, one tiki-themed and one a mambo/calypso theme. Both done in Hawaiian koa wood.
