Sorry, I am just so stinking excited about this guitar. This a first for me, building a hollowbody. I think this one is going to really nice. It has a TV Jones Filtertronic in the neck, with coil tap, and a 57' classic in the bridge with coil tap. Master tone, master volume, 3-way and blend (in center position, requires a 4PDT switch) I will post more as I go. Stephen |

That's a genuine beauty, Stephen. From the bridge style I'm going to assume it has a center block. Correct? If so, what length? (Not that it matters--just curious about it). I think your color choice and finish look absolutely perfect on this guitar. Real nice shape and proportions, too. Patrick |

Ya ....that'll suit any fan of the genre for sure! Nice! I'm curious about pickups these days and would like to know what you're using in that guitar and why you selected them? |

Thanks guys, It is actually a full center beam, with two carved chambers on either side. Top and back thickness in the carved areas is .125. The center beam is 3" wide, with flares to capture the posts for the tuneomatic bridge and the Bigsby. So in its form, it is more like a Dusenberg than a full hollow, but that is what the customer wanted :0 Thanks! Stephen |
