See the gear DJ Ashba, Richard Fortus, Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal, and Tommy Stinson used on tour in 2011.
"Thal's second Vigier doubleneck features the same configuration, fretless upper neck with dropped-D tuning, as well as custom graphics. The Gibson is a Les Paul Standard. The bands on the fretboard near the nut are used to mute open strings during tapping segments."
