Just an FYI for the archives. I did a search on the Millenium but didn't find this info. Thought I would post it.

I recently acquired a Millenium. Pre-purchase I had known that some of the fretmarkers looked like some of the planets (Earth at fret 5, Saturn with its rings at fret 12).

What I didn't notice until after I had this guitar for a week or so is that the Millenium has ALL the planets in order from Mercury to Pluto starting at the first fret. They are also color coordinated. So we have:

Fret 1 - Mercury
Fret 3 - Venus
Fret 5 - Earth
Fret 7 - Mars
Fret 9 - Jupiter
Fret 12 - Saturn
Fret 15 - Uranus
Fret 17 - Neptune
Fret 19 - Pluto

How cool is that?

Just something I noticed that I hadn't before.
