Black Korina Thinline P90s

[neverstock]

Got this great 3 lb 6 oz Black Korina body off the Showcase. Contoured heel with a nice access carve.
First pass at color - didn't want to hide the grain or the flame on the back with too dark a burst or color.

Perfect colour for BK. Nice figuring on the back too - I'm finding it difficult to avoid saying that I do like an attractive backside.

 

[PhilHill]

That is one nice chunk-o-korina indeed!
And nothing wrong with admiring a good backside, attractive backsides are getting few and far between these days.... :headbang:

 

[Verne Bunsen]

Gorgeous!

Fantastic! Not only did you keep from diminishing the grain, the dye actually made it a bit more pronounced. Great choice, there!

Can't wait to see this one come together.

Beautiful color and grain :icon_thumright: Sweet pickguard.

That's pretty swanky, love the PG... :icon_thumright:

Still waiting on my neck - korina/zircote short scale tele.

But just about done with the body.  Decided to go no pickguard.

Wound the bridge P90 myself to about 8.8K with Throbak Alnico IV magnets, and the neck adjustable staple P90 is about 7K and from Mojo Pickups UK.

Will get a Callaham tele hardtail bridge with brass compensated saddles. In the mail I see.

I spy that the pickguard was set up for a CC pickup?

I see the mini switch in there ... what kind of switching are you going to have?  Any series options?  Maybe something out of phase?

That's going to be beautiful
