              Hey guys, I'm new here, but have been a lurking for years. I'm going to be starting a little project and decided I'd share it with you guys. I recently bought an old Dinky Reverse neck from the 90's and am currently throwing around the idea of getting a DKMGT body and getting it routed out for a Kahler Tremolo. It's not here yet, so the pictures are from the seller.

                Nice looking neck! Look forward to seeing it come together.

                      wondering what the quickest leveling method is ? haven't messed with many uneven ones ( just usual dented up but fairly inline plumb - wise

                        I'm in the midst of a Warmoth Mahogany/ Flame Maple body and Koa / Ebony Neck assembly. The Ebony is truly a very special custom shop Luthier grade dark slate black wood, and not the more common Maccasar Ebony. The Koa has some light but very pretty flamed grain especially in the right light.

                        This is getting Duncan pickups all the way.

                        If I told some of you guys what I paid for this, you might not just cry...you might DIE!

                          I like those Warmoth hybrid Strats. It gives you a super-comfortable Tele. This one will look great. Congrats.

                          What does that body weigh?

                              How hard was it to get the Tru-oil to take to those patterns/paints?

                              Been thinking of doing my bass build in tru oil with a transparent black tint.

                                Their sealed with sanding sealer so its not really any diffrent to doing it on a wood that's been sealed.
