He makes thick necks too. Ive played one of the thick necks and like three of the thin. The thick is really comfy but my hands are tiny so i ended up going with the thin. Upper fret access is the best ive ever seen.... good for locusty shit

Totally awesome, tarpitman, it's a beaut! What's your ETA now? Are you getting the thin neck? Donny, what neck did you get? Mine's got the thin neck and I know I'm no musician but it's my favourite neck of all my guitars... I wish all my guitars had a thin metal neck now.

Terribly considering a 335 style with bigsby. I'm torn on wood vs. all aluminum, though.

I think all aluminum is a very unique sound... but I also think a big part of the special sound is the neck and pickups and the way they're connected so a wood body probably sounds nearly as unique... wood would be lighter I spose... I love the look of the finished wood like tarpitman's... tough choice!

I can't tell if the Chessie body is the same size as the Standard. I really love the oversize body of a 335, as far as semi-hollow goes.
