the neck is for dave's swionco...I just used it to drill the neck pocket screws and forgot to remove it for the pic. But, to answer your question, it's a Bronco neck.weijie wrote:I've been waiting to see the progress of this. Nice! Whats written in the neck area?

Er, his question was "Whats [sic] written in the neck area?". There's clearly something written in the neck pocket.Aug wrote:the neck is for dave's swionco...I just used it to drill the neck pocket screws and forgot to remove it for the pic.

SUPER HOT!
What type of tunamatic is that? How big are the holes for the bridge posts (vs. the tailpiece)?

SWEET! Looks fantastic, Aug. I'm not sure what anomolies you had to deal with, but you sure can't see 'em - and thanks for the shielding! Can't wait to put this baby together.Aug wrote:UPDATE.
As with every guitar build, there are issues and anomolies [sp?], so, to make up for them, I installed custom shielding. (don't worry, everything looks great and it will play wonderfully.)

Look! Fender is using Deserted Sands again. I wonder if Reranch ever re-opens if they might issue some.

The tailpiece is from an 80's Gibson Melody Maker. The bridge is an Allparts, Nashville style I believe.DGNR8 wrote:SUPER HOT!

Aug will have to tell about the holes.
