Re: JB Player "5150" w/ real strat head~
They're solid wood but I couldn't tell you what kind it is. I bought a body only as a project and put a real Kahler, pickup assembly and tuners on mine. The b!tch was cutting the pickguard to fit since there's no fretboard overhang for the pickguard to fit under. I didn't do the best job on that part but I used a Tiny Tim to do it!

The neck is narrower and thinner than my Model 6, and it feels just as good as the 6. For a cheapo Korean guitar I'm happy. It's fallen over a few times but still doesn't go out of tune, or I can not touch it for 2 months and it's still in tune. I wouldn't go more than say $150 for the real Strathead version, complete in excellent shape. It's still a JB Player, a decent beater in my book. It's not a guitar that comes with bragging rights. I like good mutts though! [img]graemlins/eyes.gif[/img]
