Oh, and this being my first full wenge neck, I can honestly say I'll never own another neck that isn't wenge. This has to be the smoothest wood I've ever played. My hands just glide up and down it easily.

Congratulations on the fine job. It really came out superb.

 

[PumpinIron]

Only thing I plan on changing is replacing the chrome knobs with the ivoroid bonnet knobs. I think that should look really good.

Congratulations it looks good.

Sharp.  So glad to see the shorter scale neck too.  These bodies are so small, the shorter neck and 3x3 headstock look GREAT!!!!

 

[PumpinIron]

In my opinion, you've gotta have the shorter scale neck on one of these bodies. It really is a small guitar, smallest I've ever played at least. It pales in comparison to the size of a Stratocaster, and even a Stratocaster isn't that big of a guitar.
