    It's a very idiosyncratic and different looking guitar but if you love it, that's all that matters. Aesthetics aside, it wouldn't work for me I'm afraid as I play classic rock and blues so I use the dusty end a fair bit and really do need and use 22 frets.  In fact I can even struggle with 21 frets for some stuff. 

    I also have two 24 fret guitars - a 2002 PRS Cu24 and a Patrick Eggle Berlin Pro, and those extra 2 frets are also useful for some things - playing in a part originals part covers band, sometimes I have to play stuff in different keys to accommodate the vocals. 
    I started out with nothing..... but I've still got most of it left (Seasick Steve)

    Given you obviously aren't bothered about high notes (quite rightly 99% of the time!) have you ever tried a Casino? :D

    Edit: Love the greens contrasting with each other.

    Ten years too late and still getting it wrong

    No mate I haven’t. Maybe I’ll give one a go after the surgery as I wouldn’t be able to play it right now.
