Solid body profile is hand cut and routed and fit to a handpicked neck. After Pre-Fit/assembly I sand and prep the body by hand. I then apply the minimum amount of primer, color and clear to seal the guitar and protect it. This allows me to deliver a nice finish quickly. Because I use Nitrocellulose Lacquer I do not do"Brand New Factory Finish", however we can certainly do "Closet Classic" amounts of absolute minimal relicing. Most customers will send me a picture of the colors and amount of relicing they desire and I will match that. By default I do lacquer checking, greying, patina of metal hardware and loss of gloss on pickguard in realistic locations; if you want something specific with these, or any of these details of the finish just let me know.
25.5" scale Neck with Maple fingerboard and leveled frets with a 9.5" radius . Super smooth back of neck with a glossy headstock. Fret ends are rounded and fretboard edges slightly rolled, very comfortable neck. The profile is modern C with a thinner profile .82" to .87".
Let me know if you'd like another pickup combination besides the default; Alnico 5 Handwound DWG Humbucker or P90 in the neck and bridge. We can do most pickups at no additional cost.
Switchcraft output and toggle. CTS pots and cloth wires. Oversized strap locks. Gotoh Mini 16:1 modern Tuners for ideal tuning stability and a finer control. TusQ nut.
What is pictured is a close representation of what you will get and possible color variations at random from past builds. Since this is made to order some minor variations may occur in finish but all parts will be in new and working order and as described here. I tend to use Reranch nitro, but I can accomplish a very wide variety of existing and new custom color schemes.
