    surfcaster

    Hi Guys
    Don't know if anyone has suggested a Charvel Surfcaster style guitar. But they are cool with a flame maple top and lipstick pickups

    I am a massive fan of the Surfcaster, I suggested it as a kit via email a while back. I would love a version with the humbucker/lipstick combo and tun-o-matic style bridge!!!!

    I am also a huge Surfcaster fan. Not sure they have the mass appeal to warrant a kit though. I would buy one though, just sayin.

    would need some pretty heavy mods Dedman and I'd say different scale lengths of F type (25.5") and G type neck (24.75") the bridge would need to be moved forward
