I've started my new project , and with the help of some bonus money from my "real" job have picked up more tools ( new Dewalt sander / and Dewalt hand planer) both make the work go so much faster.
Body : Warmoth Walnut LPS , with Nothwest timber AAAA Claro Walnut cap (3/8")
Neck : Carvin 24 fret Walnut neck through with Ebony fretboard and 6130 frets , diamond paua abalone markers
Pickups : Neck: TV Jones Classic (filtertron, wood mount) Bridge TV Jones Classic Plus both with Gold covers.
Tailpiece Schroeder stop tail -gold
Body / Neck planed down to accept Claro cap , neck heel reshaped to fit the body and re contoured for comfort.
The body has been relieved to reduced weight , Walnut is HEAVY! Trying a new approach this time sort of a honeycomb rather than big chambers as I've done in the past.
Coming along nicely .
