Had the chance to duck home for a few hours today. Box tucked away safe out of the weather waiting for me.
Heads up guys.....really check the order...invoice...packing slip and your memory. Some extra and add on things are just tiny and can get lost in the big shipping box. Case in point my first Bone Nut. Neatly tucked away loose in one of the internal divider sections. I then also found a guitar pick as well....nice.
Anyway. The neck and body fit really well. The body is definitely two piece. The neck appears to be maple...not so much flame maple. I found one line of possible flame on the fretboard at the ninth fret. Nothing on the headstock nor the back of the neck at all.
As the ad says it is a natural product. (Insert sad face though.) No time for a sneaky wipe over with metho to see if the flame is hiding....back to work.
But I did get some shots. The locking tuners came in a big envelope.....and the three separate entwistle pickups came in individual foam padded cardboard boxes.
Can't wait to get loose on this one.
I have been thinking about trying a Dragon Burst.....but that would mean water based stains...which have not gone well for me. Perhaps the alcohol prooftint stains from Feast Watson may be a better option. Time for a colour search I think.
The pickups have the NOISELESS extra winding coil mounted underneath....pretty well thought out concept. Be interesting to see how they sound.
