I sent this out 1/8/07 for neck scalloping, I used the 'smooth groves' service on ebay. They did a good job, the scallopes are a bit on the shallow side but they do the job. Real ripper now!

that's very reasonable indeed. do the scallops feel shallow or is it very noticeable?Comment

The scallops are down to the tops of the side marker, deep enough to get a good grab on the strings and not touch the wood while bending. They aren't as deep as my YJM but they do the job for sure, I am more than satisfied.Charvel 7308 (TMZ 008), Charvel Pro-mod (yellow), Jackson Soloist Custom (Yellow), Jackson SL2H-V Natural, Gibson LPS DB, Gibson LPS EB, Gibson LPCC C, Charvel Model 2 (scalloped), Jackson DK2M (white), Charvel Journeyman, Fender Classic Player 60's strat, Carvin C66, Musikraft strat mutt, Warmoth Strat mutt, Fender MIM Jazz bass, Epiphone Classical, Takamine parlor.

Just showing some J-90C love. I am a die hard Dimarzio guy, still am. The scalloping brightened the guitar a bit due to the wood removal and the Breed I had in there was too thin now. I was going to put in a Pafpro to smooth it out in the high end but just for the hell of it I tossed in a J-90C I had since 93' that I had in a silverburst soloist. The catalog calls it the hottest but I find it to be between medium (pafpro) and very hot (dimebucker/x2n), great mids, tight bottom and smooth highs. Great pick up, can't wait to try it through my main rig! J-90C kicks ass!Charvel 7308 (TMZ 008), Charvel Pro-mod (yellow), Jackson Soloist Custom (Yellow), Jackson SL2H-V Natural, Gibson LPS DB, Gibson LPS EB, Gibson LPCC C, Charvel Model 2 (scalloped), Jackson DK2M (white), Charvel Journeyman, Fender Classic Player 60's strat, Carvin C66, Musikraft strat mutt, Warmoth Strat mutt, Fender MIM Jazz bass, Epiphone Classical, Takamine parlor.
