Will this Yamaha go into Production?

I love, love, love, the sound of this hollowbody 6 string. To my ears it melds the distinctive midrange attack of the Ken Smith he used when he started with the Elektric Band with the warm & sweet tones that he got from his solid body Yamaha TRBs. And I imagine with this instrument being a hollowbody Patittucci's back is probably quite happy also...LMBO!!! The best of both worlds.
 
I wonder if it will be available to the public.
Probably not…

But I would guess if the public had about $16k for a custom copy…

Thay bad boy weighs in at 14 lbs!!
For a semi-hollow?
