IronSchef Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 FINALLY, the body has cured - so I worked all day on Labor Day (), then late into the evening last night, and finally strung her up today!! IronSchef Custom Build 004 - "RachaelRose" I decided to do 2 builds this summer - inspired by each of my kids -- this one is a tribute to my 12 yr old daughter. She got to pick many of the details, she's going to be so excited when she gets home! BODY Body Material - Alder with Flame Maple top Body Shape - Mustang® Body Finish - Custom Wudtone hand-rubbed finish (with body art) NECK Neck Material - Maple Neck Finish - Gloss Polyurethane Neck Shape - “C" Shape Scale Length - 24” (610 mm) Fingerboard Material - Rosewood Fingerboard Radius - 9.5” (241 mm) Number of Frets - 22 Fret Size - Medium Jumbo Nut Material - PPS Nut Width - 1.650” (42 mm) Position Inlays - Parchment Dot Truss Rod - Standard ELECTRONICS Bridge Pickup - Rose Custom Wound Mustang Single-Coil 6.60 K Neck Pickup - Rose Custom Wound Mustang Single-Coil 6.25 K Controls - On/Off, Phase Slider Switch for Each Pickup (In/Out), Master Volume, Master Tone HARDWARE Bridge - Floating Bridge with Dynamic Vibrato Tailpiece Hardware Finish - Chrome Tuning Machines - Vintage-Style with Aged White Plastic Buttons Pickguard - 4-Ply Pink Pearloid Neck Plate - 4-Bolt Custom Etched Aside from the color not turning out quite how I expected - more "peachy" than the "pinky" I expected - I like how the WudTone finish turned out -- but I don't think I liked how LONG it took to finish the body!
