The Al Joseph, AJ, takes the SCB and redefines it into a progressive-metal-geared guitar. Some changes include a bevel delete towards the top of the body and reconfigured controls to better suit Al's playing. The model is also available with the Al Joseph Spec Package, an upgraded package specific to Al's tastes.
We nailed it. This is my dream guitar. Sleekness, ergonomic, comfortable, modern, and nostalgic mixed all in one guitar!
