Re: custom guitar / grave shift guitars

I love the aluminum neck. If I still had my electric, I'd send you mine and have you make me one. Any idea of how it sounds?

Re: custom guitar / grave shift guitars

Is the pic reversed or is that really a lefty neck. Reminds me of the old Kramers that had aluminum necks. I bet your going to need a wide strap to give your shoulder some support.
