      This was the body's original neck. I will ask musikraft to see if the can use there kramer Banana head stock and reshape it to the Chavels pointy headstock.

        The guitar in the catalog is black, it was hard to make out the angle of the bridge pickups until I zoomed in.
        I agree... looks like you got a Fusion Special.
        Get a short scale 24 fret neck and party on.

          My body arrived today and was in better condition than I expected I threw and old Kramer neck on and some parts to get an idea what this will look like. The rear rout for the floyd needs to be extended for the Speedloader.

          Any colour idea's for the body too match the gold Floyd Rose and the white Lace pickups???

            Nice. Am I the only one who really likes the red color in this setup?

                Im liking that red color with gold hardware not sure if the white pu fit.
                White and gold would look quite classy, either that or an oil finish perhaps?

                  Yeah I was thinking a White/Gold guitar. My other project has a Dyed oil finish, so time wise I don't want to do another one.

                    Off to see Ormsbys today to get the Floyd Rose rout modified for the Speedloader. The body will be painted white, hope Musikraft pick a nice bit of flamed maple for the neck.

                        Got the Body back from Ormsbys, fitted the neck with a light sanding of the neck pocket. Will now sand the body back and paint it.

                            I like that idea.
                            Models
                            The prudes may snub them, but I don't care.
                            I dont need furniture.
                            If its tough, shreds, and screams, Its all good.
                            If it gets jacked, I'll get another one.
                            And rock that sucker.

                                Went to the paint shop today, changed the color to Cyan Blue. Put one coat on, will let that dry for a few days then give a second coat then some clear to finish
