• I am now able to comfortably use Rosewood again, of course the rare species like Brazilian and Madagascan are still banned, I am only using responsibly sourced Rosewood from managed forests and sources. I will still use Katalox and Pau Ferro too and it will be offered as an option, there really is little tone difference.
• Lightweight one or two piece Alder or Ash bodies, Alder bodies are warmer and woody in tone common of the wood used by Fender in the early to mid 1960’s, Ash is brighter with a pronounced midrange scoop and a tight bass response, this is the timber used for bodies by Fender in the early to mid 1950’s, it was also used by Fender on all of their ‘Blonde’ guitars

Necks are available in various profiles, my slim 63 ‘C ‘shape being my favourite, a soft fifties ‘V’ and a larger feeling ‘Texas Blues’ are both very popular. The 63C is approximately .820 at the first fret with a .070 taper towards the 12th fret, The Texas Blues is .860 with the same .070 taper, this neck also features a slightly asymmetrical contour which fits a players had perfectly.

Fingerboards are cut to a standard compound 7-1/4" to 9-1/2" radius. I find this to be a perfect combination between a vintage and modern feeling radius, giving you the ease of chording in the lower registers and the ability to bend notes on the higher frets without buzzing or choking out. This is the radius ordered by the majority of my customers.

The 7-1/4" to 9-1/2" and 10" to 12" are also some of my popular choices, these are also available in a straight radius, other fingerboard sizes are available, feel free to contact me for details.

Rosewood fingerboards are oiled to a high lustre with my own blend of natural oils (no longer Linseed based) this oil is also available from me.

Nut width is the vintage feeling 1.650" this has become my number one choice.

Dots and inlays are usually 60's style Callaham ‘real’ Clay dots or Black 50's style Delrin.
