I call her Wideload. Pickups are the cheap kind from gfs. Something better will take their place as finances allow, but in the meantime, they sound ok.

What are the specs on the neck?

Big ol' piece of lumber. S head, 1.75" at nut, boatneck, med jumbo frets, no fingerboard dots.


Pickup selection via 4-way switch controlling neck and bridge. Middle is wired out of phase and is controlled by a separate volume control. There's a master tone control that remains unused.

more pics. I took a bunch, but they sucked. These were ok, though.

I luv the wenge. People are always surprised when they get a close look at this guitar.

Also, are you digging all the boxes? I'm packing like mad.

NICE.  I really like the look of those GFS pickups (especially the bladed single coils)...when you replace them you should get some better ones that still have those blades.  The whole look of the hardware contrasted to the body is awesome.  Congrats man!  :eek:ccasion14:

Damn it! I'm completely GASed for a Black Korina with dark neck...
I would buy a body from warmoth and put the neck of the guitar that I built, but looks like the neck measures are not very "equal"... I'm a little affraid do buy it and have do build another neck...... (hummmm would be nice, too
