Greetings,
I have lurked in this board for some time, but have come across a question which I have not seen as addressed (as yet, anyway). I hope that I have not missed a thread discussing this, too. Sorry if I have.
Is anyone aware of whether there is hope/plans for a chambered Jazzmaster body?
The reason for my question is that I have this vision of a guitar project in my head...
It involves a chambered padouk body with a canary neck and flame bubinga fingerboard. I envision using two Bartolini, P-90 size pickups, but basically using a Tele type volume, tone and switching layout.
My first concern with this project is the weight. From what I have observed, a non-chambered padouk strat body is coming in at above 5 pounds. The neck woods would only add to the overal weight.
Does this sound like something that could be built? (Without the extreme expense of a from scratch custom body build?)
Thanks, in advance, for the reponses from all.
Michael
