Reis ended up trading the dragon Les Paul for his Swami Scimitar, a guitar custom made by Tym Guitars in Brisbane, Australia. Shaped liked a Tokai Hummingbird, but with the body and neck larger overall, this guitar is huge. Fitted with an original Danelectro lipstick pickup in the neck, a DeArmond gold foil in the middle position, and a P90 in the bridge, the guitar is wired up like a three-pickup Les Paul, with the ability to isolate the middle position to just the gold foil pickup. The neck is based on an '80s Les Paul custom.

The guitar is also quite weighty. "The Swami Scimitar is a really, really badass guitar," Reis says. "I don't play it [live] often just because it is a bit heavy, but I have used it on quite a few records. It's such a badass guitar, kind of one of a kind."

The guitar is all over See You in Magic, the first record by The Night Marchers, Reis' project that also features Hot Snakes' Gar Wood on guitar.
