New Thinline...Halloween special

Finished this one yesterday.

Finish: nitrocellulose lacquer over TransTint Orange dye. (Black dye used to accentuate the stripes.)
Body: Curly maple top and back, ash middle. Crafted by Jeff Neville, Hermansville, Michigan.
Neck: Rock maple with Fat C profile and medium frets by Musikraft finished with nitrocellulose lacquer.
Pickups: FatCats set from D. Allen Pickups (www.dallenpickups.com)
Bridge: Joe Barden vintage style, 3-saddle, compensated
Tuners: TonePros Kluson vintage style (bolt-on)
The black band around the edge juxtaposed against the orange edge of top and back led me to call it the "Halloween Special."

Damn, Bud, I'm sure it sounds as good as it looks. How do you let something like that go out the door? I'd have a hard time with it. Lucky customer!

Thanks for all the kind comments. I'm on the road to Nashville. When I return I'll try to post a sound clip. I really like the D. Allen FatCats. They're ballsy, but not shrill.
