[font=trebuchet ms]I have an Odyssey Custom V from the late 70's. It's all-maple, with a nice wide rosewood fretboard. Neck-through construction. [u]Much[/u] more solid-feeling than any set-neck Gibson or Gibbo copy I've played.

The only thing I don't like is the Badass wrap-around bridge/tailpiece. P.O.S!!! That's being replaced with a custom-made string-though-body bridge/tone-block as soon as I can get some time on a decent milling machine. And I have to design and build a hardshell case for it too. The tone from this axe is worth that kind of effort.[/font]
