Star body

Doesn't that body require an oversized blank? Maybe that's it.

We've been discussing the making of the  "neck", not the body...... :tard:

The neck is the part with the smaller frets, right?

In the showcase they have an angled strat neck made from rosewood but it's not a wizard. They also have a maple one in wizard with a volute sort of thing. I wonder if strength is an issue?? :dontknow:
Maybe they just don't feel like it.

Update: I'm gonna be sanding the current oil finish off of it this weekend most likely, I decided to go with white for the body and I have that GFS floyd rose and crunchy rails that'll be going on here, I'm loving those pickups and I'm really looking forward to trying that bridge,  :blob7: :blob7: :blob7: :blob7: :blob7:

They make Les Paul necks that are all rosewood so I doubt it is a gluing issue.  It might be the wizard profile, it has some special considerations.  Personally, I dig the Wenge.  Odd but endearing stuff.

+1 for the wenge.  It's not as luxurious as rosewood, but it's just as fast.  Think BMW versus Mercedes-Benz.

Also, back to crazy things for the body finish-- how about an Air Jordan splayed across the star?  :icon_thumright:
