daveq Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 Looks interesting. Will the lack of wood surrounding the neck pocket affect anything? I'm guessing it won't since V's are usually built this way - aren't they? Or are V's typically set-necks? I'm not sure but I wanted to see if anyone else here might know. One question: how are you going to do faux binding with a veneer? I thought that was typically done with a drop top (1/4" or more). If you use a veneer, do you use the body wood as the faux binding? I'm not saying it can't be done, I've just never seen faux binding on a veneered body. I've seen loads of bodies with veneer but they usually don't have binding. One more thing - will the Strat headstock look right with that body? Can you add it to your pic so we can check it out? Good luck with it. I hope you have fun with it!

rokeros Posted November 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 I had the link to my parts on s prvious post http://projectguitar.ibforums.com/index.ph...ndpost&p=237963 The headstock is strat free and is paddled for 6 inline And the veneer thing I havent thought about. Do you think that an Alder faxu Binding is any good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rokeros Posted November 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2005 Does any of you guys think that the body would look long with a strat neck. Cos now I am already getting worried. Ash HK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
