Someone on Offset makes custom tremolo plates that have twelve holes to run strings through and then a normal Jaguar bridge, then a XII neck from Warmoth/USACG.

Hasn't that got 10 strings?

I believe two tuning heads are hidden as there is 12 holes but only 10 tuning heads visible.

I can only see 10 strings visible, the E & A string only has one and isn't paired like the other 4.

Yes the plate takes 12, but this design only used 10 - low 2 aren't doubled.

i went and saw robert at dwarfcraft like 2 months ago, and the neck was hanging on the wall in his dusty ass shop/office, so i'd assume not.
