Yes, I have one in Translucent blue and it's a 10 pounder. Is yours the one with the dot inlays?

I don't know the number, but I know there were several prototype. The guitar begins as a thinline H-550. They added some Gretsch-inspired electronics, HRW pickups, and a Bigsby. David didn't like the sustain, so they put in a center block. That's the final prototype and the one I have. The next ones had signatures on the headstock and pickguard. Pros: Play well, sounds great, dramatic and beautiful blue Cons: Heavier than a H-555, although I have H-157s that weigh as much

I built this one a few weeks ago with an Allen Eden alder body and a MIJ 87 Squier neck. After reading this, I upgraded the bridge pickup to a BG1400 with a Duncan P90 that I had in the parts drawer. Holy cow! This combination screams! At some point, I may decide to rebuild this with a swamp ash body (it would have to be slightly worn shell pink) to make it lighter. But this guitar is amazing!
