Well guys
I posted this on the BaM forum as I was in the process of aquiring the Driskill. A very good friend of mine actually did a google search for Driskill and came across one for sale at a dealership in Houston.

I called the guy up, verified it was still available (unbeleiveably it had been on his site for a few weeks and he had reveived quite a few calls but none jumped on it), I took about 20 minutes to verify that the guitar was in fact legit and plunked down the cash for it. Its been an anxiety filled 2 days waiting for it to arrive, but the 5 years of dreaming of owning one of these guitars is over!! And I can say it was well worth the wait!
I was amazed with the similarities with the Diablo and my McNaught Pheonix, so much so that I took the pictures of them together. I am still in sort of shock that this guitar is currently in my home. When I had posted that I bought the guitar Joe actually got a hold of me and we spent a little time talking about the guitar before it got here. He was a bit amazed that the original owner let it go also as in his own words its one of the top 4 guitars he has ever built. The tiger inlay is just amazing!!!
Anyhow, here is a pic of the guitar in my front yard with my Pheonix.
