i just bought an 80's MIJ strat body (pretty sure it's an alder body) on ebay (has a kahler spyder on it and such). it's missing the pickups and pickguard at the moment (also no neck- prolly gonna go with a warmoth maple/rosewood of some sort: a side question is would a warmoth neck fit a mij...

okay, ive been thinking of switching my main instrument to 5 string bass as guitar players are so easy to come across but bass players are hard to come across, but i still wanted to play leads and solos. i was thinking of maybe getting a 5 string piccolo fretless (or fretted idk yet) bass and...

for a swamp ash bodied metal guitar, i heard the AN has good jazz like warm tones for the neck position and it cleans up well, but what about the Air Norton Single how would that sound in the middle, would it be a bit redundant in the middle as well as the neck? what do you guys think, any...

swamp ash body, wenge neck (having the wenge in my custom v and playing a friend's wenge necked bass made me want to use it for a special strat) ziricote fretboard (for the gorgeous spider webbing like look), and a spalt top (I know the old school strat purists are screaming bloody murder)...
