At long last, I've found the exact guitar I'm looking for. The carvin ct3. Look at the one with the maple neck in the picture (if you don't see it hit refresh). With some fine tuning of the specifics I think this might be my perfect guitar. I've been looking for a dual humbucker, mahogany body, maple neck and fretboard, hard tail guitar of high quality and a nice finish for a while.. they're hard to find What do you guys think, and what do you think of the pickup options? I don't know much about Carvin's, except that everyone has told me they make great gear.
Also, besides just the pickups, what would you guys suggest for the most balanced tone options? It'd be a mahogany body with a maple neck and fingerboard, what kind of carved top should I put on it and what pickups should I get for a guitar that can do jazz to metal?

Thinking about the carved top - for which I'd need to get a ct4, wouldn't having an all maple neck balance out vs having a mahogany and rosewood neck connected to a mahogany/maple top body? Either way maple is my neck wood of choice.
[edit] By the way check out some of the great looking custom ct3's people have done. I think I'd like to try and replicate paint job on "dave terry's", but then "baimun's" looks very good too.
