I finally pulled the trigger

[rahimiiii]

I placed an order for a KOA neck with ebony board and abalone inlay as well as SS6115 fret... I hope this neck turns out to be gorgeous! I have been wanting a KOA neck for a while (I had one that looked pretty good back in the US) Going to have someone mod it for a floyd locally since the body and pickguard will have to be modified as well...

I wish they put more KOA necks on showcase... you don't see much of them anymore (and if you did it was either very expensive or totally crap)

I hate to imagine what the price tag of that thing will be... probably about the same as a LP Studio though...
