I ordered a Warmoth jaguar neck with no inlays and the compound 10-16" radius.
I based the body on a jaguar/jazzmaster but trimmed it up a bit in certain areas.
It's a semi-hollow bubinga body with my favorite type of quilt pattern on the maple top.
My inspiration for the 2-stage stain with natural binding should be blatantly obvious. lol

The tele bridge pickup is a Chris White custom wound to 10k with alnico 8 pole magnets. The neck humbucker is a Gibson 496R with an alnico 2 mag swap.

2 volumes, 1 tone, 3-way toggle. I'm thinking about doing a push/pull for phasing too.

I'm not proud of the workmanship, because all i had to work with was a jig saw and forstner bits.

Beautiful top, nice work...can you tell me about that neck???...I see an adjustment on the side of it, which reminds me of an older PBC/Bunker style where the nut is attached to the truss rod and supports all of the string pressure, instead of the neck itself. I found them very interesting, in their day.

it has the heel truss rod, but the side adjuster keeps you from having to remove the neck pickup to make adjustments. i like it.
