Pens, I read the the specs. I'll wait to place my judgment until I play the RI. The price is pretty high too. I might pick one up when the price drops when guitar center has them on sale, or when and if they put them on clearance.

I didn't build this neck. I had Guy commission me for the build. He gave me a mim jazz neck to build around. The Guy was very pleased and so was I. I'll probably have to build one for myself soon. http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i348/justindwight1027/IMG_20121219_150855.jpg http://i1089.photobuc...

Okay, so I'm still not completely finished with the SS. But here are a few telejazz/telemasters I've recently been working on. My bursting skills aren't that great, it was my first. http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i348/justindwight1027/IMG_20120405_221653.jpg http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/...

If you have access to a hlvp setup you can use behlen nitro guitar laquer. It does not yellow as fast as other nitros but on a final coat add a drop of amber transtint. A little amber goes a long way. Also if its not green enough for you can always do another coat with the amber. Works great. It may...

If you look at my thread I've built a SS and am half way thru a sparkle paint job. I'd even love to see a real one to refine my specks on my templates.
