If this one appears at City Music, it's gonna be a hard time for me not wanting one. It's basically a Doheny with humbuckers but a closer look at those pickups- they are housed in a JM-type bobbin (Doheny V12 they call it). If the G&L people are true to their spirit of R&D, it means that each humbucker sports a wider winding both ways to give a differentiated sonic experience. Also, the guitar is equipped with a 3-way switch to manifest a true humbucker, parallel & split coil mode for sonic variations.

I think I may have that very guitar looking at the fretboard!
Under the bonnet the windings are not like wide and fat jazzmaster, they are more like two single coils. I'm still messing with 3D printing some alternative pickup covers so i've not put it through it's paces yet. But from first impressions is that there's tons of sonic potential.
I think you could spend months learning this guitar in relation with different amps and pedal setups
