Nope, i did not pick that up. I'm only skilled enough to go around leveling and crowning for now. Have not moved to refretting yet. next time round i will order more tools from them.

observr: is the neck angled?
something different.. i guess.. hmm
strange looking creature.. nice block inlays! :)

kahuna: ya man gold make it look exclusive.. but they tarnish easily​
 
eieio: Depends on the grade of the gold plating i think, my strat now has gold parts, the jackplate tarnished within days, the gotoh bridge hasn't tarnished at all
 
junkiemanxl
then add gold bigsby... more power!

kahuna

eieio, you planning to fix that LP body with the strat neck? Does it feel that the guitar is longer when you play it? reminds me of the Aria Pro II cardinal series, 25.5" neck on an LP styled body.
