Welcome Matthew!
Very interested to see how your custom paint job comes out. The EX is a great kit and you sound like you've got a great vision.
Cheers,
Gav.

Gav.I think I'm going to order one of the double necK kits or get a quote for a custom build next. Here I am already planning the second before the first one has even arrived

Does anyone know if a neck through body is possible in a custom order? I understand that there will be an increased cost for delivery due to the size.
Welcome Matthew, glad to see you are in full swing - getting ready for the next order before the first arrives - you will fit in well here.
Your plan sounds really cool, dont forget the build diary.

On a side note: the Ministry of War and Finance has just sent me a text stating that my package has arrived - let the build begin in earnest.

I love that guitar but I remember reading an article where Eddie spoke about ruining it. From memory the body is Koa or Korina and sounded really sweet pre-modification. In one of his drunken bouts of 'creativity' when he cut the back out of it, it apparently significantly altered the sound in a negative way.
