i have decided to go with the kl headstock again for this project. with the zebrawood neck it should look awesome. and with 3x3 black tuners with wooden knobs on the tuners. what do you think? any thoughts? i like to know what people think about my projects, especially since my threads never get very many replies. thanks!

imo, Rhoads V's are meant to be 6 in line. the body shape doesn't lend itself well to 3+3, again, imo.

thats pretty cool are you going to put the pickup selector on the side like the original?

no, i really dont like the switch there. but due to a major screw up on my part, i will have to put a diamond plate top on it. it really hurts to do this on such great looking wood. but i must salvage it somehow.
