I don't see it on their website now, but the keyless tuner, fretboard, changer [early] all appear to be authentic Williams parts. I can't say about the body or the pedals...but Bill had to start somewhere?

I just realized that's not some kind of rotating cluster of knee levers, but a stool in front of the guitar :lol:

carry on!

There are only two options as I see it.
Either I'm right, or there is a sinister conspiracy to conceal the fact that I'm right.
