Modulus Genesis G1T 1998

Modulus Genesis 1 strat from 1998. Excellent condition, hardly any body or fret wear. Plays really well with low action. These are really unique guitars that have incredible build quality and will stand up against almost any other strat-style guitar. Weight is 7.8 Ibs.
Pickups: the pickups are Dimarzio Virtual Vintage neck and middle, and a Seymour Duncan JB Jr. bridge pup, but I have never taken the pickguard off to verify that. They do sound great anyway. The pos. 2 (bridge and middle) is currently wired "out-of-phase" Peter Green style. I don't know if that was intentional or not, but it just requires swapping the wires on the Duncan bridge pup to change. I don't own a soldering iron anymore, so the new owner can do it themselves or have a tech take 2 minutes to do it if they wish.

N-tune tuner:
The integrated tuner is an n-tune. It has LEDs around the volume knob. When you pull up the volume knob the guitar is muted and the LEDs flash when a string is played to show whether it is in tune. It was installed aftermarket without any additional routing required, and works awesome

I quite like that.
Never seen one before. The body reminds me of those Gibson/Epiphones that were out with the massive cutaway (forget the model they called it).

I dig it.
 
There are some rather PRS-like elements to it.... the tenon that bolts behind the pickups instead of at the heel, the bridge with the wrap-around plate to hold the saddles and provide comfort....

... but the big nix for me would likely be the big fat carbon fiber rod down the center of the neck with no truss rod. Guitars with solid carbon rods down the center have (IMO) leaned towards being deader. Ironically, hollow carbon acoustics, not as bad.
