I have one. A little older and used, but works well. I'll take pictures sometime today.
Scalloping Fretboards...
in Solidbody Guitar and Bass Chat

In regards to scallops, I would never scallop the whole neck after my experience. It does make single notes easier to play, but chords are difficult and awkward. Scalloping past the 12th or 15th fret I can see because that's where solos take place, but chording on a scalloped neck tastes extra effort, and it gets quite annoying at times. This is because you don't have the wood for supporting the pressure of your fingers.
I scalloped one of my necks using files -- Took forever and was quite tedious. What tools can be used to scallop fretboard (and work the best)?
