Description: Couple of things first... When buying parts to assemble a guitar, know what you are getting into. You must be willing to work it, especially you first time builders and young folks out there. If you are not willing to take the time to do this then the best advice I can give you is don't get into guitar building. Guitar building is a craft, learned in may cases by trial and error. The ability to remain patient and adapt as needed is important. There are many, many free online tips posted by folks just like you. Speaking for my parts, and my parts alone, we sell a quality product at a workingmans price. It's up to you to work with it and make the guitar. No disrespect friends and I am doing some of you a favor by being blunt. I am not trying to scare you away, you can do it, trust me. Guitars made from my parts are used daily around the entire World.. ( yes, it's true) the same parts I sell on eBay....That said, thousands of my customers have built quality guitars from parts and felt a great degree of satisfaction, going on to build more. That said, if you are looking for absolute perfection, move on. Thanks for understanding and now on to the product..... Uncle Willie If you have questions, please email those before bidding... FREE USA SHIPPING PLEASE examine the large set of pics I have posted. Please read this info as well ... The current economy is great for folks buying right now. We're living in tough times, friends. That's the long and the short of it. I figure that I'm sitting around idle so much these days that making a little money is better than making none at all. Many, many players, both Pros, weekend giggers, home studio folks, casual players, etc .. take a perfectly good guitar and tinker / modify it .. Why ..?? For the same reason EVH does it .. to try and get that exact sound that they want .. Now, I'm not saying you'll end up with your own line of guitars .. what I am saying is my units provide you with the backbone, the framework with which to customize as much as you can stand .. and I do it at a reasonable price. I will go out on a limb here and say once this unit is finished properly and set up to your tastes, I don't think you'll find anything out there substantially better at any price .. .. now, on to the specs .. Limited Edition of just 24 .. This is My Select Model .. which means what you see in the PICS is what you get .. When It Sells, I do a complete New Set of Pics .. .. as follows: Deep Honey Transparent Finish Fading to a deep Red / Piano Black Highly Reflective Maple Flame Top ..

It's a reinforcement of wood near the headstock that makes for a stronger area) 1) You'll not find a better deal anywhere on a hand made unit of this type. 2) You guys that buy my goods to re-sell .. if you can't get near $1000 bucks out of this when it's wired and set up, you're in the wrong business. Mahogany main body, Canadian Flame Maple Top, Burst Finish, Mahogany Neck with East Indian Rosewood Fretboard .. beautiful hand inlayed fretboard .. I challenge you to find just the raw material for under $250. This unit is absolutely the finest work I have ever offered on eBay, period. I'm also giving you a nice set of gold tuners, black Humbucker rings and backplate, gold plate oval out plate. And, I'm paying the USA shipping .. other than Alaska and Hawaii, sorry. PLEASE examine and READ the info in the large set of pics I have posted. What you'll need to finish this axe out is pickups, strap pegs, wiring, knobs, pots, switch, bridge and tailpiece. That's pretty much it .. and you can find plenty of info on line on wiring .. There is such a wide range of pickups available, customize this rig with those of your choice. Most all electric guitars these days are made with a CNC machine. That includes the major makers and their "hand made" guitars with ridiculous pricing. Your so called "hand made" $3000 guitar is mainly made by a machine. It can crank out a body in minutes. It takes a craftsman hours. The machine does not give a crap. The craftsman does. Why buy a hand made guitar .. ?? Because guitars made by the major companies on CNC machines are overpriced and underbuilt. And the public has been led to believe they are getting craftsman quality so they must be worth the money. So they can sell the public a bill of goods making them believe all the great players use their instruments. Fact: the JEM was not an Ibanez. Fact: The Slash Les Paul was not a Gibson. The list goes on. Lastly, I'll stack this against anything out there in the $1500 retail range. This unit is a reproduction of one of my own personal players. Keep in mind that you are bidding on just a set neck unit as shown Don't go away without clicking "View Sellers Other Items" PLEASE NOTE that on shipping consolidations, we will ONLY Consolidate what closes on the same day.

We do our best to ship FAST. I do ask that you have a little patience.. A) I ship on average 2-3 times a week. I am closed on Sundays at the shop, it's my only day off. B) If you are in a real rush, let me know. 2) Please contact me before or after the sale with any questions or what not. I will reply, but I don't live on the computer, so give an old man a little time. As my long time customers on eBay will tell you, my customers are my friends. I appreciate each and every one of them and treat them as my friends. 3) I work very hard at making sure my PICS are clear and the description is a good one.

Why not take a moment out of your busy schedule and click on "View Other Auctions by this Seller"? We search the World Over so you don't have to! in other words May the Force Bid With You... Lastly, just a final note from an American Veteran of the Vietnam era..please support American owned business. It's the one thing each and every one of us can do to help our country and our economy. Every dollar that goes to China or any other country that supports the cheapest labor is a dollar that could have stayed in the USA and helped an American family. We need to stick together when it comes to these things.. sure, we all want the best price.. but at what cost..?? Shoes, clothing and many other things have all but disappeared from American factories. What's next..? Think of your future and Support American Business now. Just another Rant from Uncle Willie.
