Coming along nicely. I need to find an allen wrench to fit the wee screws on the Schaller roller bridge.

Sexy. What bridge is that? Did you use it to make the conversion neck work?

CV Duos use conversion necks so it was an easy swap. The bridge is a Schaller roller bridge. I had to trim out the pickguard with the xacto for a perfect fit but it came out nicely.

I thought it looked like a Peavey T60 bridge at first.
Anyway, looks sweet, what's on the headstock logo?

Looks great! Have been plotting a near-identical project myself.
What neck did you use? I was thinking Chinese Jagmaster...

Sweet! How does it play with the new neck?
Has it upset the balance at all? The bodies on these are really light IIRC.
Are there any slotted tuners that will fit this one? Sorry for all the n00b questions.

It sets and plays nice. It is very well balanced despite its light weight.

So did you just swap the neck for the look? I have both necks and I like the feel of the CV duo neck better.

No, I had the neck, and got the body for $40 off ebay. Just came together. I like the JM neck better, I also have a stock CV Duo. I also hate lil headstocks.
