Headstock reads "Kroll" Cavity is partially shielded. Has a pao ferro fretboard, which still needs to be radiused. It can be fretted or fretless. Has two carbon fiber rods installed in neck already. Has chrome bridge. And black tuners. I also have a 60hz emg pickup never used just opened. The rear cavity cover I cut from 3-ply white pickguard material, still needs final fitting. I have set of pickguard screws, abalone side inlay dotsn and medium stew-mac super glue for them. Also have a unopened bottle of fretboard finishing oil, three potentiometers an output jack, and a set a bunch of .1 capacitors. There is also a 16" fretboard radiusing block. and a black graphtec nut. http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i137/gtrmn768/DSC00196.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i137/gtrmn768/DSC00193.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i137/gtrmn768/DSC00195.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i137/gtrmn768/DSC00197.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i137/gtrmn768/DSC00191.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i137/gtrmn768/DSC00199.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i137/gtrmn768/DSC00201.jpg shipped $350- $300 ftf Edited February 10, 2008 by gtrmn768 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gtrmn768 0 Posted February 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 exactly it is gorgeous, I didn't do the work on it. I bought the body with the pau ferro board, (which i cut to size, woo, big deal. Yea right) The guy that built it supposedly worked in Memphis for Gibson, left and made a few things real small production. He sold this as is to a music store. A local guy here in Atlanta bought it on a business trip up there and he bought the tuners for it. He never got around to finishing it, so I bought it off him and bought all the other stuff in hopes of finishing it. I never got too far. Oh, well need the money now, fishing time is around the corner, and so I abandon the winter wood project. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
