sorry busy with my work and my DIY #2
when i made decision to make single cut with wrap around... my friend here came over to my house and telling me to make a guitar with thin body... with a set thru neck..... soo.... i made this dc with only 3,4 cm thick total... really thin and light ... equipped with roller TOM like bridge... i mod it so it can be move upward and backward a little and have a locking stud feature

and the last... a bigsby like tremolo

this is the body

You're making my mind run wild with ideas! And these ideas are usually bad for my wallet.

Hey Rhythm, how's the trem-block treating you so far?

eclipze,

You may wanna copyright/patent your locking design. It is brilliant.
I've not seen such an idea on locking. Well, not that i know of.
