Up for sale is this one off beauty you may recognize:
- Soloist burl maple top with swamp ash back
- SSS routing shielded and with machines inserts for painless pickup height adjustment
- hand stained in 'charcoal glow'
- Satin finish with dog hair back and sides and matching backplate. Professionally done by Pat Wilkins Guitars.
- Routed for a Fender American Standard hardtail bridge. This also works with the Babicz hardtail bridge (a considerable improvement over the Fender and Kluson USA Standard bridge), and the Hipshot bridge, although it has a very slightly wider mounting spacing should work.
- 250k CTS pots, orange drop capacitor, shielding cavity, black jack plate and jack, black vintage strap holders, and black neck plate+screws (not shown) are included.
Cost of the just the body + cover + finish: $1200 without any hardware.
I briefly listed the entire guitar but it became obvious it was such a nice build it would be faster/easier to sell the body and neck separately.
Offering at $1050. Will consider reasonable offers.
