  1. Yeah, I probably will use a nice oil finish, which should be interesting, cause I've never done one before. I have also (thusfar) moved the switches to the upper horn, kind of like a LP or a jazzmaster/jaguar. BTW, the switches only look big because I just sort of sliced up a few pics in paint and moved em around, cut out here and there, ect. ect.

    In picking the pickups, I attempted to find a nice warm, natural neck pup, a funky sort-twangy mid, and a nice strong bridge pup.

    Also, I have been toying with the idea of mounting a Kahler trem on it in leiu of the TOM and stopbar.

  2. I don't know when, but I am going to start a project for an SG style guitar with the following specs:

    Body Material: Black Korina

    Neck:

    Species: Mahogany

    Profile: '60s style slim taper

    Peghead Pitch: 17

    Thickness at 12th Fret: 0.895

    Neck Joint Location: 22

    Head Inlay: split diamond

    Head Binding: single-ply

    Fingerboard:

    Species: Ebony

    Scale Length: 243/4"

    Number of Frets: 24

    Nut Width: 111/16"

    Width at 12th Fret: 2.062

    Inlays: split diamond

    Fingerboard Binding: single-ply

    Hardware:

    Plating Finish: Nickel

    Tailpiece: TonePros Stopbar

    Bridge: TonePros Tune-O-Matic

    Knobs: Black Speed

    I know that may be a bit overwhelming to look at, so I made a mock-up picture:

    Note the Monkey Grip and Omega hole, the three two-way switches, the h-s-h pickups, and the 24 fret neck.

    I plan to make the body myself, and find an SG Supreme neck to use with it. Any comments/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
