To be fair, those ultracures look a lot better when someone's holding them than they do just floating in space.

I almost like that ultracure thing. With a normal headstock it might be pretty ok.

There's another version that's not so horizontally squished that I like more tho.

Straight Talk?

The only thing keeping one of these things at Schecter and not here at the ranch?

That it is not "Neck Volume/Neck Tone/Bridge Volume/Bridge Tone/Master Volume..."

(Assuming the control on the upper bout is indeed a Master Volume...)
