Default Electric guitar designed by John Standefer?

Just wondered if anyone would like to weigh in on this craigslist ad:

http://seattle.craigslist.org/tac/msg/3250911538.html

Have you heard of John being involved in something like this?

Looks pretty cool and I find it tempting to look into, but I don't know as much about the world of electric guitars, so just thought I'd see if anyone thought this was a deal.

(Hope this is a legit post - moderators, feel free to take me off if not.)
Thanks!

How about a response directly from John? I sent him this page and here is what he had to say:

Ross -

Yep, this was my guitar. My graphics guy has owned it for about a year. It really is a cool rig and I can tell you anything you want to know about it. If I wasn't pinched for money I'd still have it. You can see the /Bigsby influence but there's a lot more there if you're interested. We could set up a phone call if you or anyone wants to chat…

John

Hey thanks Ross! I appreciate the verification!
Can you PM me the email address for John Standefer, or at least some contact info so that I can throw a couple questions his way?

I appreciate your time on this!
