The customer liked the tobacco burst but when he surreptitiously asked his son what he liked, it turned out he prefered a transparent blue so I've basically followed the same colour scheme as a standard trans blue Gibson. He's also a big fan of the band Tool so I've tried to copy Adam Jones's pickup selection.
A few specs:
Body is Sapele with a quilted western Maple cap bound with B/W/B/W/B/W plastic bindings,
Neck is a two piece laminated Sapele construction with Ebony board and Evo gold fret wire, the Gibson MOP block inlays,
Pickups are Seymour Duncans, an SH1 ('59 Model) in the neck posn and a SH4 (JB Model) in the bridge, also with coil cuts via push/pull pots on both just for a little sonic variance.
Bridge and stop tailpiece are Gotoh items as are the 510 tuners,
Finished with Mirotone 3220 clear over blue colortone stain.

can I ask where that bridge and tail piece came from ?
