Soo I really want an awesome offset travel guitar so I made a little photoshop concept. A little weird, yes but pretty cool. What do you guys think?

Is that going to be a 22.75" neck? Do an Swinger...

Yep and a swinger body would be too long. This is the same length as the mini strat.

I reckon it looks bit squashed with the vol/tone knobs so close to the back. Maybe you could put them on rollers like a JM rhythm circuit, but put the rollers where the duo switching would normally go? The guitar would have less protrusions too, good for travel.

Hmm that's a good idea ^ you can use them as regular volume/tones?

Pretty sure they are just linear taper pots with roller knobs on them. I've been wrong before though...

Hmm. Well I would use the two pots out of the mini strat that I would buy to save some money.
