How is that an option after you routed the wiring channel for the neck pup? Please don't get me wrong, that is a gorgeous guitar , and also my favorite crossbreed . FWIW, a single-ply back guard, no burst, what tele wouldn't be jealous of that?


BTW, really like the tele like roundover on the bottom blending into the strat like roundover on the top. Too cool

I've got templates for a LPDC that I will likely be ramping up here soon. Mr. Kingma, that maple (I'm assuming) is gorgeous. Well done, sir, indeed.

Looks like spalted flame maple. I made a Vox ACTV4 cabinet conversion out of it last year. It really pops with TruOil on it.

Looks like John's has a rorschach test in it though.
