This Baretta is in amazing shape and is a beast! This is a tough decision to let it go. I had some changes made that I will detail below. This was not a project for me so I took it to Barry Lipman who owns Connecticut Guitar and Strings. He did a fantastic job and will always have my business from now on. These are the improvements:

-Refretted with stainless steel Jescar 57/110 jumbo frets
-Fretboard radius is now compound 10-12
-New Floyd allen wrench posts installed
-42mm brass block
-New Official Floyd Rose R5 nut
-Floyd Rose was installed wrong from the factory. Barry moved Floyd forward by redrilling and inserting dowels. There is a little float in it's present set up, but is pretty much a "down only" Floyd as the block is very close to the body. However it intonates perfectly!
-Barry went through and cleaned up sides/back of neck and it is smooth as silk!
-New Schaller bar and lock down post
-Action is low at 4/64 low E to 3/64 high E
-Neck is set very straight, very easy to fly around the fretboard
-He said there was a slight separation of the fingerboard from the neck near the nut and he glued and clamped it down.

-There are some surface scratches near the pickup. The tuners have a few marks, especially the high E. The Floyd nut was already cut low and with higher frets it is now shimmed.

This Baretta has a 1 3/4 neck width, original Schaller pickup, and Schaller tuners. I love the guitar, but I'm building two more closer to my specs and it was between this and an ESP Kamikaze -I'm just too much of a Lynch fan to let that one go just yet :)
