For fans of expensive Tool things, here’s the latest thing for you – the Adam Jones Flying V Collector’s Edition guitar! The blurb from Gibson says:
An Out-of-This-World Limited Edition Flying V
Gibson Custom Shop is the pinnacle of craftsmanship, quality, and sound excellence. Each instrument celebrates Gibson’s legacy through accuracy, authenticity, and attention to detail.
Adam Jones, from multi-platinum selling and multiple Grammy Award® winning band Tool, is one of rock’s most talented and sonically innovative guitarists. This out-of-this-world limited-edition Flying V from Adam Jones is designed and built to reflect his preference for heavier guitars and features a non-weight relieved mahogany body, string-through ferrules, a Futura-style split headstock design, custom appointments, a truss rod cover with exclusive artwork overlaid, and a painstakingly-applied Reverse Antique Silverburst finish. It also comes with an adjustable leather strap developed by Adam himself. It is adorned with a Two-Headed Dog hand-cast and plated brooch developed by artist Alex Kuno. Aged by the artisans of the Murphy Lab, only 50 units will be hand-crafted by the expert luthiers and craftspeople of the Gibson Custom Shop in Nashville, Tennessee, as part of this extraordinary limited run.

No skulls to be seen on the artwork sadly, but I’m sure those who can afford the $20k to purchase one of these 50 axes will be suitably chuffed anyway! It does come with this cool dog brooch thing though:
For those in the lower and middle classes though, the great news is that Toolband has a new range of trackies for you to check out: https://store.toolband.com/dept/activewear
