Mr Foster yes you can order a large selection of kits just neck and body only, but the website doesn't give that option for the EX-1 kits so send Adam an email to see if he can sell you neck and body only --> adamboyle at pitbullguitars dot com
The website is saying the EX-1 is out of stock but they are expecting a full container of kits first week of March so give you time to work out your upgrades and paint.
Warning building guitars is very addictive ! much more than alcohol and ciggies haha
