Rocket!

Not sure of the year. New enough to have a truss rod (works), old enough to have had the wooden risers under the pickups.

Frets and board are good, neck angle is good. Apart from some scratches and paint loss on the headstock, a good-looking machine.

Includes only the body/neck/screws and tuners.

I borrowed parts from my other Rocket to string it up. Yes, i know, the nut is ridiculous. I loosened the truss rod completely. With a ser of electric 10's the neck is dead flat. I would probably put 11's on it and see what happens. I've owned a bunch of these, and my impression is that it might be a great player. Even with my half-assed collection of parts, i was in Japanese shredder territory. With a little work, it could be totally civilized.

I'm attached to the one i already own...

Will ship neck-off.
