I mean, don't really.. Unless you wanna see me try and find out if it's possible to attempt to put a SE neck on a core body and paint my name in G.I.T.D. spray paint.

But head's up on a cheap way to spruce up your CE, if you wanna build one, or send it to the PTC and buy a neck somewhere for a killer project.

No, no, no.... I was just kidding. It's a super cool alder CE body for somebody interested,just wanted to pass it along.

 

[justmund]

Wouldn't that make the scale length all wonky?

 

[rugerpc]

yup, its a challenge.....

but with the amount of space between the pup cavities on the body, I'm thinking it is really a 22....

for example, look at the spacing on this pair:

compare to:

ok, I changed my mind - it probably is a 24...

D'oh!

 

[toothace]

If it is an '88 body it's a 24 fret...the CE 22 wasn't made until '94-95



So would that result in a CE22 with CE24 pickup spacing? Isn't the bridge in the same location on all bodies and the pickup is what gets moved for a 24?

 

[mezzio]

I double dare you!! Lol... Could be a fun project

 

[wardog]

no, the bridge and treble pup are closer to the fretboard in a 24

Right! I need to watch that CU22-CU24 animation again!

Sergio is an "old school" magician.
I'll throw in $100 if someone makes this happen.
