    To my knowledge no kits combine jazz profile neck with a semi-hollow body. I don't think any PB kits have a j-bass neck profile--not even the j-bass kits.

    I did talk to Adam about a semi hollow body, but before I heard from him I found this one fairly cheap. Cheap was important since, as Simon notes, routing a curved surface with a thin veneer is not for the faint of heart.

    The Bill Lawrence arrived and fits the existing route. A slight mod of the neck pocket seems quite a bit easier to me than routing for a pup on a curved surface. Filling also seems easier than routing--*IF* I even need to...
