TransTrem, HazLabs EQ (second version)

This body has an unusual H-H configuration, which is not achieved by closing the middle pickup cavity. It is originally built like that. All stock GS guitars have been built with the usual H-S-H configuration, with very few exceptions. I have not been able to get a confirmation that this was a custom order or a prototype made by Steinberger, other than "everything is possible". Closer inspection makes it look like an original body, though, with lots of similarities to other bodies visible e.g. in the electronics compartment. But the real story behind it might remain a secret…
