    Soooo the one advantage of a bung neck, stain test piece.

    Also as this needs to be finished before christmas has started the backup plan as a possible substitue.

    So got the new neck to fix this guitar and is a super tight fit with plenty of meat to adjust to suit.
    Should probably start a new thread but have continued with the PRS substitute and halfway through clearing the body and neck. Going silver hardware and zebra rocksongs. Waiting on some silver pickup rings. This has a mahogony body and a Basswood neck and had DB do a bone nut. Have to fix a small chip on the treble side of the headstock so bit of a sandbck reshape and should be sweet.

    Super nice job on that blue Tony, ... really hot! (which is certainly saying something as I'm not usually a big fan of blue as a guitar colour)


    Wait a minute ... that sounds like Rock and/or Roll!

    SG-1 ... "Little Miss" finished in Flamenco Cherry Wudtone
    TL-1A ... "Slugger" finished in Antique White Nitro
    EX-1 ... "Metal God" finished in nickel-plate (work in progress)
    ST-1A ... "Scrapper" stained and finished in linseed oil ... and with the "secret weapon"
    GR-1SF ... "Rocker-billy" (just arrived, work in progress)

    that PRS looks sensational Tony, is that the one with no bridge holes drilled ? Haven't seen a PRS with trapezoid fret markers on the fingerboard and a 24 fretter

    thanks Guys

    Wokka this was one of the custom kits that was dropped. Yeah has some cool variations to the standard.

    The basswood neck was a bit of a weird choice but will see how it goes.

    nice one Tony, so did you drill the string through holes and fit the ferules ?

    You are king of the popped flames !

    Wokka string holes were already there.
    Havent put ferrules in yet and wondering wether I have done the right thing, as was going to fit once the finish is done.
    And no kinglyness, only the fickle favour of the Kit Gods in the quality of tops and grains in the last 4 or 5 kits.

    The burst on that body is sensational.

    Big ups to Adam.
