Thanks for the input! I actually have that neck on a daphne blue Strat with Mare formvar 50s and a Callaham trem/screws/arm/block. I am just cutting the nut now (my first in about 30 years) but it should be done by tomorrow night! No pics yet. I have a cheap Warmoth neck which is 1 3/4" w and 1" medium-soft V all the way up.
The orange body will look like this (except much more clear
)
Nothing is actually together it is just to see if anything really clashes. I realized too late I need some type of random orbit buffer to really do the paint correctly, but what you see is some polish, an old t-shirt and lots of elbow grease! I have a moto pickguard and a Novak humbucker sized WRHB in the neck and a Zexcoil in the bridge. I have no idea if they will play nice or not. THe neck is 1/4 sawn, roasted and massively flamed 1 11/16" w and 1" U all the way up! I got it last June and it is the first neck I have ever had that didn't get fret sprout it's first winter. The neck may over power the body as it is just over 3 pounds.
I am wet sanding a black pine Tele that will have a maple neck and Klein Epic Broadcaster pickups. I am glad I bought all these pieces over the course of last year as money has been so tight, but the Wife landed a 3 month contract with a company she hopes to become permanent with. They have good health care which should help The Bear as well as my breathing.
