    yeah, it's a vox.
    My Girlfriend said to me..."How many guitars do you need?" and I replied...."How many pairs of shoes do you need?" She got really quiet.

    no it's not custom. It's an old vox, I'm not sure of the model but I know it's a vox.

    The only modern guitar I know of that shape is a very rare guitar by ZVex called the Drip.


    If you're talking about the hollowbody it's a Gibson 335. I believe Jeff usually plays it live on Smile. I think it's actually Mikes guitar.

    Ricks got an image posted in Mikes guitars over at http://www.giventowail.com check it out and see if that's it.

    Stone plays bass on Smile Live... he lends his 335 to Jeff or on this past tour I saw Jeff playing a Gretsch on Smile.

    Anyways,

    Vox made guitars in the 60s or so out of Italy. They were famous for having effects on board... however, they obviously weren't that successful as you don't see too many of them any more, and they are not in production. They exist though.

    probe built into the pickguard. i think it's a wah probe. interesting idea certainly.

    and a few danelectros have effects onboard as well.

    I haven't although I imagine they could have some pretty cool stuff going...

    It would be very cool to have some of their thermin (sp?) style effects...

    so you could let a not ring and then with your hand ,manipulate an effect or two...

    although to be honest, I have enough trouble with volume, tone, and pup selector switches when playing live... :<

    that's a Vox copy, down to the headstock and style of script for the logo... I hope he got permission.

    Which company is it that puts a little amp and speaker in the guitar?

    Those were kinda funky.

    I'd rather use one of my guitars and my Pignose.
    ...and if you don't like it, you can suck on an egg.
