Hey guys,
I have one of his bodies. I eBayed it over a year ago. Same thing...double F-hole thinline style body. Ash body...flame maple top. I bought a '55 RI CIJ Tele neck from Stratosphere (eBay) and the neck was a tad too big for the pocket. A buddy of mine is widening the pocket for me. When I get it back I'm going to stain the body (cherry mahogany?), drop in some Harmonic Design Z-90s, Callaham tuners/bridge, a 4-way switch and hope for the best.
His neck pockets seem standard. My strat neck fit snugly (of course it had the extra space on the corners because of the rounded heel). So I'm assuming the CIJ neck isn't quite standard.
I thought that the body would have been a little more finished. You have to sand around the F-holes for smoother results. But I guess I should've assumed that. I got mine for $216.00 including shipping. It looks like someone will get it for less. Oh well...so far I'm happy with mine. Can't wait to set it up!
