chambered black korina body with korina top. '59 round back quartersawn neck with ebony fretboard (no markers) stainless frets. original style floyd. sd evh (at the moment) (btw, the evh is NOT F spaced (at least not this one.) still needs smoe tweaking but pretty good fit & finish.

thanks! it's the warmoth stock finish on the body. like orange stain on front into metallic orange on the back. i thought it made the korina grain really stand out nice. actually, ran into a disappointing turn. floyd nut is about .020-.030"? too high, had to send it back for re-route. decided against trying to whittle it out with a razor blade! i can wait a few more days. the pickup is seymour '78, it may end up with a darkburst though.
